I haven't had time this week to attend training with the Frontrunners, so tonight was seven laps of Highbury Fields and a there and back. I'd taken a break from running, as I'd gone home for my Grandma's funeral and the Bank Holiday weekend. I think about my Gran a lot when I'm running, and I've resolved to run a half marathon in spring next year, in part as a personal goal for training but also to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society. Gran had Alzheimer's for fourteen years and any research that can be undertaken to find a cure for this condition can only be a good thing.
Conditions for tonight's run were dry but overcast and quite warm. I fell into my usual pattern of feeling tired and a bit achey initially, but by the time I'd reached lap 4 I had warmed up sufficiently and felt able to carry on all the way through. There was a football match on at the Emirates so I had to dodge lots of people but in general it was fine.
