This week I logged 29 miles with speed work on Tuesday, maintenance runs on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday and a 9 mile run today. I definitely felt tired toward the end of this week and today’s run was tougher than I expected. I think it’s just part of adjusting to the increased mileage.

| Wimbledon Common |
I have been running mostly through city neighborhoods. Although today I ran through Wimbledon Common which was a nice change of scenery. There were parts of my run where no one was in sight. It was just me and the open crisp air, it was very peaceful. I hope to do more park running as it's a great way to see all of London's parks. I plan on visiting Richmond Park next weekend.
I have been listing to audio books recently which is a great way to take your mind off the running. At the moment I am listening to Dear John, which honestly is a bit of a downer. I think the next book I choose will need to be a bit more light hearted. I am considering a comedy or thriller. Any recommendations are appreciated! :)
