On your marks, get set...

Every day is a school day and this evening I learnt two very valuable lessons...

1) that running in the evening means there are a lot more insects about and that sunglasses would be beneficial (I had two bugs in my eye/contact lens in my first km and I wouldn’t like to guess how many I ingested, I certainly wasn’t very hungry when I got home).

2) doing a longer run after a long/full day is a LOT harder than at the start of the day. On Saturday morning 7km was a doddle, tonight, however, my muscles are scolding me reproachfully.
