Easy Saturday

Nico agreed to an easy run for an hour this morning which suited me fine. We set off slowly which he didn't think I was capable of doing and ran up into Le Mesnil by the church before heading into the forest.

The first major incident of the run occurred by the church where we were almost run over by a learner driver passing through town. He noticed us at the latest minute and slammed on the brakes, forgetting to press the clutch in the process and stalling dramatically. We wondered afterwards if he was sitting his test which will count for another failure in the stats if true.

Nothing really to report about the run. We had a good chat and kept the pace very modest as I think we only went faster than 12km/h for 3 km out of the total distance. Very relaxing and enjoyable indeed.

12.3 km all up in 1:03. Perfect preparation for the relays tomorrow in Vincennes.
