Knackered!

Less than 4 weeks left to the Duathlon. Seeing that we have been running the same route for the last 2 months (and for SD who has been doing the same route for the last eight years), we decided to change the running scenery yesterday. From Canary Wharf to Greenwich. I have always thought of doing that route since Greenwich is seemingly a nice place for a run. Lush park with good slopes.

So off we went, running down Westferry Road before hitting Greenwich Tunnel which links Docklands with Greenwich across the Thames. That is when I realised my stupor and when I have not ran this route since my last a year ago. Long flights of steps going up and down the tunnel. And a killing slope up to the Royal Observatory.

We did manage to make it back to Canary Wharf less than an hour for the 10km. It probably provided a beter reflection of the condition for the Duathlon next month at Richmond Park. But right now, I am just knackered. My knees and calves are aching.

Yes, I wun be doing this same route for some time.
