    @steevc just finished a 6.98km run, that lasted for 42 minutes.
    This run helped steevc burn 526.0 calories.


    Description from Strava:
    I was at the pub jam session last night. I took my ukulele this time for a change. Richard had his mandolin and banjo so we had a nice mix. We even had a small audience this time.

    This morning was much warmer than recently, so there was no frost and I was fine in t-shirt and shorts. I did not run on Tuesday as my back has been a little sore. I think that is from the digging I did at the weekend, but it is not too bad. I felt up to running today despite still feeling it a bit.

    It was the usual loop. I started off taking it fairly gently, but got quicker as I went on. By the time I came back down the hill I felt up to going for it and I was a little quicker than some recent attempts down that 1km stretch. I am still a full minute off my best time, but I need to build back up to that sort of pace. I am happy enough with averaging 6min/km over the run.

    Work has been going on for a while in the new cafe up the road. Last time I passed the shutters were down, but I could see in today and it looks ready for customers. I also noticed some 'Daleks' outside a pair of houses that were due to be demolished to provide access to the new houses that are being built behind. I assume these are to deter urban explorers like @slobberchops. I have not noticed that sort of thing before.

    It could get up to 18C today, but the forecast is for slightly cooler and damper weather. We have not had much rain lately. I am trying to persuade @todayslight to at least come and walk parkrun on Saturday even if he cannot do it all. I said I would walk with him as he tries to get in shape. If he does not do it all I can run the rest.

    Run free and enjoy the sun.
