Getting back on track for Reading Half Marathon

Getting back on track for @ReadingHalf + reviews of @Thule Chariot Lite & @GearBunch #loverunning #runningkit #ReadingHalf @Sotonparkrun

It was really nice to be back running at Southampton parkrun. I’m feeling stiff, tired and unfit, so I decided to do my best to enjoy my run as I know my fitness will come back when I get into a more regular programme of exercise.
