Lovely run this evening

Got home from the ant-farm this evening, v. tired - did i want to go running - Nooooooo; but as i had a spare 45 mins I figured i'd guilt myself into 5 miles.

The weather was perfect for running this evening, no breeze and mild.    I ran down thru Raheny to Dollymount beach.

It odd how sometimes it works like that, the run you have to drag yourself out for is the most enjoyable, like that party you dont want to go too and you end up having a ball.

Anyway something (guilt over that bag of crisps & choccy bar at lunchtime?) made me go out - and it was great.

Dublin Bay looked lovely this evening and I took the run handy (pace 5m50sec per k) to ensure I didnt feel too tired/bet up.    I'd love to have more speed but I'd rather distance and sometimes, with the amount of trouble i've had in not being able to run at times over the last 12 months, I think i'm almost afraid to push myself too hard - in case something goes snap.

Anyway managed just under the 5 miles and Howth looked lovely in the late evening sun
