W12 D2 – Track jog

Tonight I was given the opportunity to go on a running track and do a few laps. Baring a lap at the start of the Roding Valley half a month ago I can’t remember when I last run round a track, if ever! At school they had grass markings and from memory back then 1 lap was enough let alone the 1.7Miles we covered this evening in the short 15min session.

I guess what made the evening better was having the opportunity to run with Andy Vernon one of England’s emerging hopefuls in mid distance running. Obviously he humored us with the pace whilst we ran and held a conversation – would have loved to see him do a fast lap and see how long on a 400m track it would take him to lap me – not long I suspect!

Anyway cool night and a couple more miles on the legs :-) Hoping the sun comes out for tomorrows run.
