Today's plan was for a steady 35 minutes, so I upped my pace from yesterday (quite easy to do when I can see where I'm running). Mind you the ~9-minute-mile pace was a bit harder to keep up with all the running on grass I'm now doing. However I'm quite pleased with the consistency I managed today.
Two thirds of the way round lap two, I got a great view of a red kite hovering above me. I wish I'd had my camera to get a good picture, it was very close. Round about the same point on lap three, there it was again, this time circling over the allotments. As I approached the end of the final lap, I was looking keenly for the kite, but couldn't see it. Then it swooped overhead again. When I got home, I picked up my camera and headed back for my "warm-down" walk to the spot where it had been, but it was now much higher. I took a few pictures anyway, and here's the best one:
