Shopping Run

I was in a crappy mood this evening and thought a run would fix it. As we needed to do food shopping I decided to run to the shops and have Trent meet me there with the kids. It was a cool night (10 degrees) but didn't feel that cold, to me anyway.

I walked the first 2km and then decided I would jog the rest of the way to the shops. I didn't go overly fast just thought I would try and keep a consistent pace. I kept my speed to around 9mins a km for the 3 km that I jogged. I would be happier if I could go faster but this is good for now. I do find that it does depend on what music I am actually listening to when I am running as it changes my speeds. Slow songs slow me down where as faster songs speed me up. Maybe I should see how long I can keep up the running when it is all faster songs I am listening to?

I ended up beating Trent and the kids to the shops and started the shopping before they got there. I thought the shops would have been slightly further (about 6/7km) than what they were (5.88km) but it was good to get out. It didn't fix my mood but I got a run out of it so I am happy(ish).
