Pounding the streets of Hoylake and beyond.

Well it was kind of like a summers day today - not quite as good as I was expecting but certainly a lot warmer than of late. Went out at about 5ish and did Riversdale again. Around a minute slower today compared to Monday for some reason? Anyway, nice to be out and about. All hot and bothered when I got home.

Did Riversdale Rd circuit today which (yet again) was a breezy old day. So a time of around 39.30 when I wasn’t pushing it aint too bad.

Yep, still struggling to keep the old blog updated …perhaps I should pick a new theme for a bit of inspiration. I’m messing about with a new theme on a cycling shoes site that I’m starting - might go with that one. Actually, it’s not just blogging about running that I need to do more of …bit more running required too!

…is that sometimes it would seem you’re going to get a bad back. So that’s what I’ve gone and got. It’s my daughters fault of course - as I managed to pull a muscle or something when I was rinsing their flannels in the bathroom basin. Rather sore though since Friday morning.

Needed some fresh air so I decided I was okay enough to go for a run but I could feel it every so often. Fancied doing more but ended up just going to Red Rocks and back (!)

I did one of the Sunday morning routes that I tend to do with Graham today for a slight change. Up to Red Rocks, along the beach, cut up Lang Lane, over the main road to Orrysdale and then home down the Cinder path and along through Hoylake.

Still got sore/stiff legs …I need a good stretch I think!

A  nice trot today around Stretton with Mike today.

Did my Wirral Way circuit today. Wind assisted on the outward - a bit. Wind hindered on the homeward leg - also a bit.

Was going alright until about the 10km mark when I started to stiffen up. Manage to get round in 1hour 3 50 something - so that’s a good minute better than my last effort.

I seem to have lost focus with my running this year for whatever reason. I should get myself back into it!

Sunday morning trot with Graham  at 9.30 this morning down to Red Rocks. Where did Saturday’s lovely weather go?

Other blog posts to catch up on!

Met up with Graham at 8.30 this Sunday morning for a trot. An hour earlier than our normal meet-up time so I was even more stiff than I usually am of a morning. We did Red Rocks and back in a time that shouldnt be mentioned.

Will we ever see the end of this bloody wind? Sneaked out before tea on yet another blowy day to nip down to Red Rocks. Considering the conditions I’m quite happy with 25:31

Did my Wirral Way circuit today on yet another windy old day. Was going alright until I started to seize up on the way home. Still, nice to do a long-un …you do find that your mind loses more clutter the longer you run
