Did five miles last night and my legs felt really heavy! It is taking longer than I hoped to get back to my pre injury fitness level. So with that in mind another five miles tonight and hopefully the same again Thursday. Oh and last night I ran without my ankle support not on purpose as I forgot to put it on, but my ankle survived.
As I did not get into the London marathon I am thinking about what biggy to enter next year! I don't fancy a marathon not because of the distance or the training but I have done Edinburgh and wanted to do London, I don't want to run a low profile one!
So I am thinking about entering the first ever Kilomathon that's 26.2km and as the race is from Nottingham to Derby it is pretty local. Will keep you informed!
see ya

NO!!
Did not get into the 2010 London Marathon, Bugger!
Weather forecast for Sunday's race is ok and the high winds we have at the moment should be dropping.
Training, I did four miles Tuesday, rest Wednesday and five miles last night hoping to do the 10k in just over 50 minutes.
Woken up at 5.30am this morning by a text from my brother, he is in the USA see photo below,
'Eggs Benedict overlooking Laguna beach!'
I need that on a Friday morning at work!!
cheers

Bad one!
Was off work yesterday, did some shopping and other bits & bobs! Was planning to go running about 2.00pm and do about six miles.
Well it started off ok but after about two miles I was totally knackered ended up only doing four and I didn’t run all that! Now the day before I had a long day driving to Luton airport and back in the early hours of the morning so was probably still tired from that. Also I don’t prepare well enough! When I am at work I make sure I drink plenty of water when I am at home I forget!!
Anyway am at work today and I am very busy stopping till at least 6.00pm but I will be going for a run tonight hopefully with a better result than yesterday.
This weekend, it is the weekend I don’t have my kids!, I have entered a 10k.
It is the Goose Fair Gallop at Kimberley. Never been to Kimberley before but according to the AA route finder it is 30 minutes from my house. So should be fun and will hopefully improve my fitness before the Worksop half!
Should find out soon whether I have got into next years London marathon not hopeful as it is the first time I have applied and I am not that lucky!
Cheers
ps. Did four miles Saturday.
