Passed the test

This morning I tested my injury from the previous week by going out running. It was a nice morning and a joy to be running again in the countryside. I didn't se myself too hard a task, just a hilly 6.5 mile run. I ran at a comfortable pace and other than my quads letting me know I was working them, the glute muscle behaved. I felt great and completed the run at a 7 min 57 sec per mile pace which is as fast as I have ran recently so I was pleased. I had also received sad news of an ex-boss who had passed away and hadn't even reached 60! A wee reminder to us all to stay fit and healthy and enjoy every minute in life! Go for a walk today and take some time out to smell the roses. There will be a day when we will be the otherside of them if you get my drift!
