Distance: 7.93km
Timing: 48:40 for 6:08 min/km pace
This was a test run for my less-than-stellar ankle and it failed the test. Miserably. Pain was my company this morning, apart from Kenny of course. Such a new fellow – giving up his training pace to run at tortoise speed with me and not forgetting the prayers at the end. PTL.
Lap 1
It was painful from the first step and we took it cautiously; the downhills which are usually my favourite turned out to be my biggest enemy this morning.
Lap 2
I was able to increase the pace in this lap and surprisingly, it was less painful running at a faster pace. For some odd reason (which I found out later was due to a tight quad), Kenny drop off after the turnaround.
It was perfect running temps this morning after the overnight rain and I would have enjoyed the run if not for the wonky ankle. Can I request for healing prayers from everyone?
