Yesterday went out for a late run near 8p.m.
At first I switched off the stop watch by mistake, but noticed that quite quickly.
However, half way round the run I saw a man lying in the gutter. he was wet, without a shoe and his crutches were lying on the ground. I stopped and went over to help him. He was drunk. He only had the use of one leg. I got him up onto his crutches but he just fell over. I pulled him over to the nearest bar, and sat him up against the wall. I then asked the bar staff to call an ambulance to take him home.
There wasn't much else I could do. He was so drunk he couldn't speak!
I then stopped off to buy bread before heading back home.
The watch just kept running and I have no idea how quick or slow I was running. i was just glad that the stops had not put me out of stride, and I managed to get back quickly into my rhythm.
Would have liked a decent run and time, but it was not to be.
Interestingly I have run 11 miles this last week, which is the same amount as all other days put together.
I feel comfortable on the 2 mile run, and plan to do 2 miles this week again, at least 8 miles and then see about upping my distance.
This week looks busy. I already have meetings on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.I may manage a late run on Mon. Fri, and Sat , but Wednesday looks out.
I hope the rain stays off!
