Not at all - injuries are so stressful & a lot of work goes into recovery!

The sun shining on a green field with a few fluffy clouds above

Running as therapy tonight after a downer of a day at work (not usual) - a 4.3 mile tempo run with the sun shining. Feel better now. #running #spring

A vivid orange stripe low acrosss the sky at sunrise with blues and pinks above

Today’s plan was a 4.2 mile run at an easy pace (joined by the family) - with no consensus on what that pace actually was. Ended up running a bit faster than intended before doing our own thing the last mile which was ok #running #sunrise

Thanks & couldn’t agree more about the importance of a nice coffee and a scone! 😂

An oak tree in the midst of a field with misty weather - everything is soft around the edges

More mist and a recovery run of 4 miles (with a stop at mile 3 for a scone and coffee - but that’s not important…) #running #trees #oak

All 8 NE Wales were on today hosting 1108 participants (95 fewer than last time all operated 2 weeks ago) - 174 volunteers gave their time. I did course check/set up/RD & a woodpecker was drumming in the tree next to me (audio on) #parkrun #running #oak #woodpecker

A tree which looks like it is dancing under a sky filled with fluffy clouds

A short run to collect the car on #parkrun eve - can’t wait to catch up with my fellow volunteers as our venue wasn’t available last week. My turn as RD this week - clipboard and playlist are ready! #running

Thank you! It was after many days of rain so the volume of water going over the falls was much greater than usual - thinking your hunch is correct!

A castellated stone wall in the foreground with the sun setting behind the hills on the horizon

It was a mostly misty day with the sun appearing briefly during my 4.2 mile run (pushed the pace up the hills and then threw in a few strides at the end) #running #sunset

A horse-shaped weathervane visible through leafless trees

I have run and cycled past this weathervane for years and only noticed it for the first time today. Ran 4.2 miles at what was supposed to be a relaxed pace but ended up racing my family in the last quarter mile (I’m counting it as speedwork!) #running
