The Wall Street Run & Heart Walk was why there were no cabs to be found in Lower Manhattan. The cab I did find was not impressed that I was going to JFK: "I was sure you were headed for midtown". Given the traffic, next time I'd probably ride, except it looks like you can't ride a bike into JFK…
Another little run around the Little Petherwick loop. Hard work with the 50mph breeze.
There have been some complaints about the lack of colo(u)r, so I'm alternating a bit.
Not to be outdone by yesterday, I tried a gentle trot around the headland and Stepper Point.
Back for high tide and the last chocolatine at the cafe.
A slow 10.5k and yes, I should have had a rest day.
Padstow to Little Petherick and back with an almost loop.
The out-leg was along the Saints Way (Forth an Syns)
The back-leg on the other side of Little Petherick Creek.
Past the Jubilee memorial (for Viccy, not Liz)
9km and yes, it was muddy. Very muddy.
Evening run-walk-run. Down river over the bridge, back along the other side, over the weir and home.
Note to self: starting to run in your late 40s, stopping for a month, and then starting again aches. Aches a lot.
The boat house house (it's a house on a boat house) at Shillingford is surrounded. More of a boat house island house.
A jog from Padstow over to Trevone-ish and then up and around Stepper Point. Longest run to date, at 9.75km. Brov helpfully pointed to the short cut I took along the low-tide line across the beach & the 250m that cut from the distanace. So close.
More running views are available.
I'm wondering if I run now for the run, or run now for the views.
6.03km and 3 PRs but brov is still waaaaay ahead of me (and F is still waaaaaaaaaaaaay out of sight).
The footpath from Brightwell. A gentle run back from the garden centre with VFFs.
5.97km in 37m 32s (which is <drumroll />
6.06 minutes per km) ± whatever imprecision there is with free-Strave-on-iPhone. That's an improvement from week 3 back in May. It's almost as if I'm starting to enjoy it.
And, it's probably worth all the effort just for the running views. There's quite a collection of them!

Why did't you walk down and up the garden for 31m at the end to make it 6k?
