Last day of February!!!!!!!!

Not long now and I really can't get my head round training!

Sleaford Half 19/02/12

Well not too bad was a bit worried I had not put in enough training but I felt pretty good. It was a bit windy and at least a mile is off road and was quite sticky. Managed a sprint finish (ish!) did not let the guy behind me pass me and finished in 1.44:52.

Very pleased to be honest! got a nice t-shirt too.

So next is the Ashby 20 better get some more miles into the old legs.

Well chuffed.

cheers

Well,

That was not too bad! Full report later when official results are out, I think about 1.46ish forgot to stop my watch.

But the sprint finish was back.

Carb loading

Lot's of lovely pasta today!

yum yum

Resting...

...my old legs for Sunday!

5.2 miles this morning!

Felt longer!

Going out again tonight for about eight miles making the most of the good weather. Quite enjoyed this morning though it did make a difference that the schools are on half term so I did not have to battle through loads of kids.

Hopefully my 'ABF' (Army Benevolent Fund) fund raising kit will be waiting for me when I get home. Has got me motivated again, well for one day at least.

cheers

Running for...

... The Army Benevolent Fund.


A fundraising pack is on its way.

Pictures soon.

Labels

I like my gear and I like labels!!

Currently I am running in 'Asics', shorts by 'Nike', top by whoever I am running for!

Oh! socks by 'Nike'

But I really like 'Adidas' was my shoe of choice when I started! Just don't like the green stuff!

Anyway have picked a charity to run for in 2012 just waiting to hear back and then all will be revealed.

Good night

Updated!

Have updated the races entered so far for 2012!

Hopefully lot's more to come.

Grantham cup

Just entered the 2012 Grantham Cup 10k at Belton. The 1st of April and a good day out entry to the international horse trials is included.

cheers

SNOW!

Lot's of horrible, cold white stuff.

So running continued at the gym, 10k yesterday and hopefully 10k tonight. Still not sure about Sleaford yet.

Motivation is a bit low at the moment.

cheers

February!!!!!!!!!

Already!!

Still have not shook this cold off but I am running on the dreaded treadmill at the gym, 10k last night so should be ok for the Sleaford half. Not bothered about doing it quickly time running is more important as my main focus for the first half of this year is the London marathon.

Was supposed to have been watching super Notts tomorrow but that has been postponed due to a frozen pitch. So looks like the gym all day. What an exciting life I have.

cheers
