Yesterday I ran a shorter recovery run. I was surprised how good I felt. The speed is slowly coming back. A few more speed sessions and tapering back on the long runs over the next few weeks should see it getting better.

Today the weather just couldn't make up it's mind what it wanted to do. Heavy cloud, periods of sunshine and light to heavy drizzle and a stiff head wind all the way home were how the run went. I got out a bit later today. The same run as the previous two Monday's. Proof of my increased speed is these runs are getting faster and faster.

I was beginning to think that I would see no signs of life except for and electric blue dragonfly that hovered in front of me for a good 500 metres when I met up with Two Fruits coming the other way. A brief chat and then we continued our runs.

This week is the last week for increasing the weekly mileage. From next week I will start and bring it back down.
