Training Run 54 - 6.26 miles / 10.08km, 48'55''

Today I ran with Cristian, we did a lap around Hyde Park followed by a lap of the Serpentine in Hyde Park.  The weather was grey and overcast and the ground was slightly damp from the drizzle that had been falling earlier that morning.  This felt difficult - I was running at quite a fast pace and my hips felt tired and achey.  However, I persevered and was able to finish, and still have a slight burst of speed left for the very end.  Cris and I were really pleased with our times for this distance, and this bodes well for Porto next weekend.  Later I went for brunch and then on to Cristian's for a drinks party in the evening.  A great day all in all, I am really looking forward to Porto now!
