Thanks Hillbillies for a great run this morning!! With 2 speedy Hillbillies as running partners today, I had a good speed-session. Dy is back in top form after a lightning-fast Gun Run this past weekend, and Rob is his usual speedy self.
We started at a comfy pace up Dean Street, and stretched our legs along Newlands Avenue. Heading up Kirstenbosch Drive Rob found a hidden energy store and flew up the hill, with Dy and I following close behind. Heading down Riverside, Dy and I had a bit of a race to the M3, temporarily leaving Rob behind, but he soon caught up and then overtook us - still having some energy left after we'd spend ours sprinting.
All in all a thoroughly enjoyable run. Scenic, with little by way of vehicular traffic but quite a lot of runners out and about. I can see that summer is well on its way - mornings warm up quite quickly and all the 'fair-weather-runners' are coming out of hibernation and starting their summer running programmes. It's great to see so many people taking advantage of the good weather to spend some time outdoors.
-------------------------
Some of the Hillbillies will be doing a 5K run tomorrow morning (Friday) at 6am, and for those who prefer sleeping in on a Friday morning, join us next week Tuesday for a longer run - around 14-15km - starting 5:30am from Great Westerford.
