Eurocentral 5k Loop

Day 2 of running training, joined by Kenney Harris. Both of us are looking to get into better shape to tackle a triathlon or two this year.

This is a loop I have ran quite a few times, reasonably flat and very boring. Just over 3 loops 2 loops is 5km, perfect. Eventually we will use this for tempo runs, but at the moment it just a fitness builder.

We agreed to meet up around 8pm. Callum had a laugh at me and asked why I was wearing mums tights......  :/

Kenney went to the gym for a cycle first - while the kids were getting ready for bed we had a few texts, and as Aimee went down early we would meet up earlier. Kenney arrived shortly before me in the layby, hats on, and we were off.

It was a cold crispy evening with a scooby doo moon, but the layers, hat, gloves and jacket meant it was warm enough.... I ran this loop 2 days earlier and the wind was icy cold, no such problems tonight.

KH had warned me he was out of shape, and said this was his 2nd worst 5k time ever..... so we will be expecting consistent improvements each time :)
