I had meant to do a fairly long run roday but with one thing and another I didn't have the time. In the end I went out without a plan and just headed toward the river.
Although it was a gorgeous day it was rather too hot for running, so I was quite happy not to do too long a run. I took the trail route along the river and just kept going until I had used half the available time and then turned round. Rather that than simply returning the same way I made a few minor changes, involving a short road section then going round the other side of the mill pool, down the other side of the river, and crossing a field, but finishing on the road back home. At least there was some shade from the trees.
It was such a nice day and I enjoyed the run so much I wished I'd gone out earlier when it was a little cooler so I could have stayed out for a bit longer.
I generally don't bother taking a bottle with me except on longer runs, but as it was so hot I took a small bottle of isotonic drink. Trying to drink and run at the same time though, I somehow managed to pull my jaw muscle when I belched!
