I do the 5k Parkrun regularly, but that isn't going to get me round the 42.2k London Marathon course. Having had a bit of a break over Christmas (too many mince pies), I have been trying to get back into training. Today was a long run day and I managed to run, on and off, for around 2 hours.

As you can see from the pictures, it was a crisp, sunny afternoon in York, just cold!

I ran across York racecourse and over the River Ouse at Naburn.

Looks lovely doesn't it? This was the temperature at the time. -1 degree, but feeling like -4 degrees.

 

I headed back into York via Clifford’s Tower.

This was right near the end. A lovely day to be outside.
