5 mile steady recovery run to shake the stiffness out from the HPM. no aches and pains at all.
Good going to be running Ok so soon. Well done on the HPM, Rob loved it. Gutted to have missed it, it was a hard call to make, I'd have probably been OK, but didn't want to take the risk. Even today got elbowed (accidentally I should add :-)) in a race and it didn't half hurt.Quote:

Yesterday did 18miles on undulating roads and bridal ways around Sunderland, at least half of it into a crazy wind when some gusts actually knocked me backwards, still worked hard with wind behind me and when in shelter and averaged just 1/2 min over mara pace so pleased. However the final 1.5 miles or so was directly into the wind again and was a horrible experience!
Today was meant to be an easy 10 but turned into a comfy 12.5miles, slight breeze but nothing like yesterday meant I felt heavy but ended up at same pace as it was so much easier.
A good hard weekend, now easing off for a week.

Hi Iain, had a chat with Rob, he was telling me he was the only one left from the original team, Missed him at the finish, I wondered what he thought of it in the dark.Quote:

5 miles yesterday including 2 miles with my step-son who is trying to get fit for the army. He ran 10.40 for a 1.5mile lap which apparently is good enough to get him in.
I ran the same lap in 10.09 after 3 miles on the hills. Couldnt resist waving my stopwatch under his nose and pointing out that i was 3 stone heavier than him..........imagine what time i might have made if i had run it fresh young man?
He went sulking in his room.#
Thats two family members ive upset this weekend!
Your such an Arse:D
