Lunch Run — May 25, 2026

I squeezed in 8.2km during my lunch break today, which felt like the perfect reset button for a Monday. The legs were feeling surprisingly good, so I just let them roll at whatever pace felt natural. Ended up averaging 5:48/km, which is solid for what was supposed to be an easy midday shakeout.

The route was pancake flat – literally only 5 meters of elevation gain – so I got into this nice rhythm where I didn't have to think about much. Just me, the pavement, and 47 minutes away from my desk. These lunch runs are becoming non-negotiable for me. I come back to work way more focused, and honestly, it beats eating a sad sandwich at my computer.
