Recovery run - Stockholm

I'd arranged to meet up with some fellow runners from work this morning at the hotel. It was the same group as in Paris last week, minus 1. So I met with Bruce (English chap) and Inger (Swedish lady) for an easy route around the lake. I was declared official route guide and I took them around the stand cicuit of Lake Malaren.

We set off easily enough but when the Garmin beeped for the first kilometre I saw 4:59 and knew that the pace was slightly too fast for Bruce so we slowed it down a little to let everyone enjoy their run.

Very pleasant around the lake at this speed chatting easily.

8km all up in 42:35 which was just as well as any longer would have made us late for the day's meetings.
