I had set out toward Lambrick Park to close out my “Revisit Trilogy,” beginning my first windy lap with the goal of staying in zone two. I reflected on the previous runs—King’s Pond and Rithet’s Bog—along with a tough experiment in zone one the day before, which made this effort feel more balanced. Over five steady laps, I shared the quiet rhythm of the park, brief encounters with fellow runners and plenty of dogs, all while keeping a consistent pace. I noted how the run fit into my broader weekly training, managing effort, calories, and recovery to stay on track. I wrapped up the session on my final lap, looking ahead to upcoming adventures and signing off from Lambrick Park on April Fool’s Day.
