Apologies for this being a few days late, but I kind of forgot about updating the blog. Opps, not a great omen for the future!
Not really very much to say about Sunday's run to be honest. I had expected it to be a slow(er) run than last time as I have had two weeks with no running, even though I have been doing other forms of exercise. Ant had spent Saturday at the Rugby, so he wasn't feeling overly chirpy and I had a dicky tummy, so neither of us could really be bothered!
But we did go out and we did do the four mile run, so there is that much to be said for things. The time though wasn't great at a touch over 54 minutes. Which was a bit annoying in a way. As much as I struggled with getting my breath, as well as getting a stitch at one point, the run felt quicker than the time suggests.
Having looked at the split times the running was going well, but I was having to slow to a walk for far longer than I had realised. It was also poor underfoot, with the hills being slippery and me not going fast or hard enough to dig my shoes in and retain a decent grip. But that's something to work on next week.
Ho hum. So not a great result, but not too shabby given the circumstances. I'm hoping this weekend's run will be faster.
This is the tale of a slightly over-weight 30 year old who decided one day that I should give something back to those that have helped me in my darkest time. And that something now involves running the 2017 London Marathon for MacMillan God only knows why I decided this was a good idea.........
