Good run this week - according to MapMyRun around 8k or 4.8 miles in old money. We did it in around 52 minutes which obviously isn't going to break any records but that did include a tactical 2 minute walk at halfway to take on some water as it was warm (the weather not the water).

This is something that I haven't mastered in 10 years of running - drinking whilst on the move. I know the mechanics; take a mouthful, hold it in your mouth, breathe out then swallow. But I just can't co-ordinate it. I either end up with most of it down my front or it goes down the wrong way and I go even redder in the face than I usually am. I will persevere.
