Slight injury from overdoing it. I did a 15-mile ‘3 parks’ walk covering Wimbledon Common, Richmond Park, and Bushy Park via Teddington. I stopped for a bite at the Pheasantry (north of the Diana Fountain) before heading home. Light rain for most of the walk, clearing at the end. Very enjoyable but my left ankle ached badly for a week afterwards – perhaps too much fast road walking in my walking boots.
Further walks of 7, 11, and 15 miles this month, and went out with my choir to do a 9-mile 'Surrey 3-peaks challenge'! We summited Box Hill, Leith Hill, and Holmbury Hill, and sang madrigals at the top of each!
Still running during the week - mainly hill-sprint training. This sounds easy:
1. Jog to hill
2. Sprint up for 30 seconds at top speed
3. Jog down it
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 for a total of 10 times
5. Jog home.
For some reason this is quite hard!
