[Swoop]

Just been for a run along the canal.

Those socks must be very buoyant. I always seem to sink when I run on the canal.

A bloody great hour sploshing around the muddy tracks though fields, woods and forest around Monmouth. No other buggar about. Pissing rain, claggy, cold. Loved it!!

Merseyside XC today - finished 20th. Not sure what to make of it really. Was an absolute mudbath in parts and very tough! But very flat, would have preferred a couple of hills. Turning to the northerns I am now keen to get a couple of good weeks training and give it a right go!

Ran on the treadmill today (horror!) as I need a bit of leg speed. 3X10mins of effort with 2 mins recoveries in between. A good blast if you have little time.
Followed it with a Pilates class.
(And a warm pepper and goats cheese bagel!!)

Bit of a naff week as I hurt my leg running on tuesday night. Think it might have had something to do with the ski boots I had on during the day. Managed to run each day since and the pain in my left calf is now much better. Can still feel it, but able to run hard on it. AM training 8.30am-Warm up, 4 x 7 minute XC loop off 2 mins recovery, warm down. About 10 mile in total. PM-5 mile steady all on roads. Total 15+ miles.

You do know you could have done a better session to build up leg speed and a better session on the roads than that. I wouldnt do 3 x 10mins to build up leg speed.
