Miles I actually ran: 6 :)
On Sunday's I run with a local club. We all descend on one of London's many commons and irritate the non-running local population by taking up their parking spaces, and generally getting in their way.
After slogging up and down more hills than I'd like this morning, and I suspect getting a little lost (hence the extra mile) we all went to the local cafe and eat cake! I like cake, and the reward of cake definitely got me round the route this morning. In fact I have may have mentioned multiple times, how much I wanted cake as I went round.
One of the nice things about running with other people is peer pressure stops you from giving up and going home after a mile. You can complain about the hills with the other runners, and it feels like you are all in this together! As well as running with other people, and a feeling of camaraderie, there are also the added obstacles of other people's dogs, who get very excited when they see a group of runners, and have a tendency to bolt towards you with large sticks in their mouths. I find this breaks up the monotony of trudging round my local streets nicely.
Anyway, home now, and time to move on from cake to bacon! Happy Sunday!
