Been Away But Been Running

With the wet month of June over in our very green country and with with looks like a wetter July on the way I'm glad I've got back into running to try and cheer me up on these wet days.  June was a great month for me running wise.  While I may not have ran great distances, just 51.68km for the whole month, I did manage to get myself out the door ten times during the month, which is not bad considering I ran 11 time in the whole five months before it.

I finished the month of June on a sunny, by Irish standards, day with a run along the river.  Out from home it is 800m to the river and the track that runs alongside it.  With my longest run begin just 6.25km this year I was aiming for 7 or 8km.  I decided to run with music, which I normally don't do and I was glad I did.  I really enjoyed myself, the music was great, the sun was out the scenery was calming and peaceful and I found myself smiling the while run.  Before I knew it I had run 10km and was feeling great.

It feels great to be back on the road.
