Yeah I adjusted it after the first ride. That was when I had just built it

I actually got out for a quick run yesterday morning before work, only my 5k Glen Fabba loop. But I had just cycled 20.5 miles to get to work.
And all before 7.00 am.

33 mile cycle home, via some lovely country lanes. Feeling a little tired today - hence on the GXSR this morning.

Couple of very enjoyable runs with friends over the last week.

Guilsfield woods evening run

and Gregynog Hall evening run

Feels good to be getting back out there again.

Fabulous run with five other canicross runners, of just under 12 miles this morning, from Ponderosa to Llandegla, a loop around the forest, and back to Ponderosa. All in perfect conditions with clear skies and sunshine, but back before it started getting too warm.

I'm now slumped in a chair and Mabel is crashed in her bed!

Managed to make it out for a couple of runs on Wednesday.

The first was an early morning 3.8 mile run locally with a friend from just up the lane, and then another 4.3 miles that evening with a couple of canicross friends.

Thought my legs would be a bit stiff after that but they've been fine.

Good work. I managed to get out yesterday for a quick run after over a week off due to a shoulder injury (causing much pain and sleeplessness) ... and I fell, so now have more injuries to add to the list.

Luckily, I only have a walk planned tomorrow!

Ouch, that's not good. How did you get the shoulder injury?

Nice picture on Strava by the way!

Thanks.

I'm not entirely sure. I visited my mother with my brother and his family - there was some apple tree climbing and football somewhere along the line which could have caused it, but it just came on over night after that.

I've never had anything quite so painful happen without some sort of clear cause (apart from getting old, that is).

I remember not so long ago, putting my back out when I bent down to do up the laces on my running shoes!

Absolutely brilliant 7.8 mile run with a couple of canicross friends in the hills above Llandinam. Perfect weather with blue skies and sunshine but not too warm.

Great way to start a Sunday.
