    You need to leave the phone in the car.
    You wont ever truly appreciate the fells until you leave civilisation behind. Just run with the kit needed.

    Phones on the fells

    You had a reply about thee mini-bus yet.

    Im sure i could ride fast before it melts - but then my legs will be trashed before the race has even started.

    Oki doki.

    Its about 6 miles to your house, i dont want to be blasting it down the roads or to be on the last minute....have to work out how long that will take me so when to set off.

    The bus leaves at 8:15 doesnt it?

    God i might aswel not go to bed.

    Im just going to follow the guy in front and trundle along, see how my legs and knee feels. Im a tad worried that my legs may struggle with the distance as i have hardly trained since the start of November/ end of October but well see how things go.

    Yeah, Shouldnt be running sunday but i cant not do it. Im going to do the Pennie Bridleway Relays after that and then call it a day for a couple of months while I mend. Getting a call from my Uni injury and rehab unit and monday to get seen to.
    Its gradually getting worse, it started on just the outside of the knee, now its also on the inside.
    I dont think my part-time job does me any favour. Im a shelf stacker but i have quite a physical job compared to the fattys who put shampoo on the shelfs. Im constantly twisting my knee and by the end of a shift my knee is killing. So i duno if stopping running for a while is guna make much difference if im screwing it up working.


    Its starting to really get me down now though. Before christmas and before the knee started, i was looking forward to getting some good training and milage done, to help me do alright in races. But the fact that i cant even train is just winding me up. I have to rely on a knee support to get me round a race.


    I shouldnt have bad knees at 18!
