Last Thursday I ran 6 miles, Friday I cut my lawn, Saturday walked into town to sort out the money to pay for the repairs to my car and yesterday ran 8 miles. It was a steady eight miles and I did it in just over 1 hour & 2 minutes.
Training now for the 10k at Sherwood Pines this Sunday which I think is going to be a different route to the one I did last week. Not such an off road trail race but on the ‘well maintained’ forest tracks according to the organiser’s blurb!
Rachel and Tammy are also running on Sunday it being their second ever 10k after doing the ‘Race for Life’ 10k yesterday so they both have personal bests to beat. I am hoping for a new pb and to that end am trying to prepare properly this week with some speed and hill work and a better diet!
Picked up a running vest on Saturday from JJB in the sale! It is a ‘Champion’ one in white, have yet to run in a vest but if we get a hot day on Sunday I think it will be my top of choice. It does mean I won’t be wearing my ‘Guide Dogs for the Blind’ top but as long as I wear it for my half marathons and in particular the Great North Run in which I am in their team it will be fine! I am a bit of a label snob and prefer Adidas but you can’t turn down sale bargains though I think when the car is fixed, tomorrow hopefully, a trip to the retail outlet on the A38 just outside Mansfield to the Adidas store may well be in order!
Planning on a six mile run tonight followed by beans on toast (white bread) then a walk up to ASDA for some pasta supplies.
cheers
