Lunch Run: Damp hills
steevc just finished a 5.33km run, that lasted for 32 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 379.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
I was in the office today, but wanted to get a run in. The weather has been overcast, but still fairly warm. As I went to the changing rooms there were a few spots of rain and the ground was already wet. As I went out it seemed to have stopped.
I tend to look on Google Maps to find new routes, but I may end up improvising. After an initial downhill stretch it was uphill. Some of that was on grass as I tried to find a way through. I climbed about 40m in the first half and then decided i did not want to run up any more hills, so I headed back via the old town. I stayed off the main roads to avoid crowds and cars.
I knew there was a final climb to get back to work, so I took it easy. I am happy enough with the pace through. I am happy enough at around 6min/km, but hope to improve on that by keeping up my runs.
As usual I was really sweaty by the time I got back, but I had to get in the shower and back to work. That just means I sweat a bit more afterwards. I was listening to Desert Island Discs featuring Rob Delaney who is in the Deadpool movie. He has had some family tragedy with losing a young son.
There is plenty of graffiti to be found in the Stevenage underpasses as well as some sanctioned murals. This one is fairly new.
As I went back to work it was raining again, so I managed to miss that. It might have cooled me down a bit though.
I was watching more Olympics this evening. The Brits missed out on gold this time in the 1500m. The speed of those guys and the ladies in the 3000m steeplechase is just amazing. I will never be anything like that fast.
Run free!

The essence of run is to sweat so keep sweating😁😁
I thought it was about moving your feet ;)
Ingebrigsten was too consumed by winning Kerr that he lost the bigger picture, and lost everything in the process. Very sad
It didn't play out as expected, but that is sport. There were multiple national records broken, so that shows how tough it was.
That guy came out of nowhere in the 1500m. I skipped my workout today because my wife and I were at the hospital until midnight last night sitting with our friend until her husband came out of surgery. Nice job on your run!
The US don't normally do so well at this distance, but he ran a great race. Our guy almost ended up in third. You shouldn't get too cocky.
Wishing your friend all the best.
Thank you!
the drawing of wall is so cute
The pink graffiti image style looks familiar. That artist is going further south than I would expect. You get used to the styles.
I've no idea about that culture. There's some I see a lot. I've seen '10 foot' written in lots of places. That's not very creative though.
I should take more notice, there's whole websites dedicated to it such as this.

Coloquix I know only too well, the style is very distinctive.
That doesn't surprise me. There are some good artists out there, but some just put their tag everywhere.
