And it's not getting any easier.
I set out at a gentle pace having already decided to take things easy and to not push too hard. My aim was to run all the way. The first incline and I slowed to a walk. This was not looking good. I managed the second incline, steely determination getting me to the top. The third was a long and slow incline, I managed about a third before giving in and giving myself a really hard time about it. But then whilst taking in the beautiful view on a glorious sunny Sunday morning I gave myself a stern talking to. I was out and about enjoying the warmth of the sun and the gentle breeze on my face, finding views I need to revisit with my birthday present camera and burning calories and being kind to my heart and body.
Then, it got easier, I relaxed and settled into a steady pace and enjoyed the music. I walked the final incline without a care in the world and the final stretch of my run was probably the best bit of the whole 5.5 miles.
It would be so nice to have a good run, I haven't had that for quite some time. I don't know where I'm going wrong but I must be due one sometime soon, please!
