A much better week, thanks to a bank holiday on Monday, so I could fit in an extra run, the Peacehaven Resolution Run, a dry-run for a Peacehaven #parkrun, which is in development. It was cold, and the north wind did blow, but there were some lovely views on a course on a mixture of path and grass. Some of the grassy sections were very boggy, although there hadn’t been much rain. According to my Garmin, the course was a little short of the necessary 5k, and some of the faster runners were misdirected near the finish. That’s the reason for trial runs like this, so I’m confident the organisers will make the necessary improvements.
Today’s long run was seven miles along Seaford front, to the end of Newhaven East Pier and back. I haven’t run this far since early November. My knee held up well. I’ll be increasing the distance of the long runs between now and a couple of weeks before half-marathon day, when I’ll start my taper.
49 days till the Brighton Half.
I’m running the Brighton Half for the Stroke Association. Find out more and sponsor me.
