Chased by a Bermondsey Chav

Was in a debate today about what running I should do. I kept changing my mind. I finally decided to go to the gym as I didn't have a t-shirt only a gym vest. Then someone at work gave me a new t-shirt so I had no excuse but to go for a run outside. I decided to run home from work. The quickest route is less than 4km, but I mapped out a longer 10km route:

For a short time during the run I had a Bermondsey Chav girl run alongside me. She was trying to make fun of me. She was a harmless enough (I don't think she was carrying a knife) but she couldn't keep up.

Pleased with my run today. Exactly 10km in 58:30. I think the dodgy estates of SE london made me go faster. Still not sure if I am ready for the big runs I have been promising this bank holiday weekend. Shikha my running partner on Monday though is really looking forward to it, and I don't want to let her down. Furthermore, I am only three weeks away from the run so I really should be able to manage much further than 10kms.
