Lark Ascending

Friday already, where does the time go to. Well yesterday was spent mostly on the end on a spade in the garden digging for victory. Anyway my back is aching but no good grumbling just get on and run. Only a little over four miles to cover so the choice of routes was endless. Once again I chose mainly off road, we had a mixture of sun, rain, hail and thunder yesterday but I felt we could find some fields that would be relatively dry. Down a track and turning right down a path we were soon in open fields. Sheep with lambs took little notice of us as we skirted around where they grazed. I heard a skylark singing overhead, the first this year I think. Only one part of the field still slightly flooded so that was ok. Leaving the fields behind we ran up the Main Street through a village before turning onto a track that lead to within a short distance of home. The run was over four miles which means we have again reached our twenty five mile target for the week.
Good luck to all those running the London marathon on Sunday. We will probably go for a run early  then get home to watch the finish on TV.
