Crap day

2hr drive to work, 6hrs in the pouring rain, 2hrs home.
Couldn't even finish the crossword.

Straight out for a run around the roads and wouldn't you know it the sun was blazing, quick bath then visit my mum in hospital.
Just waiting for my tea now.

Run was good, trouble is I live on a hill so every road run I do ends in a nasty 1/2 mile at the end. I ran too fast really, I usually do when I've had a crap day.

3.2m
27mins
160 avg bpm

Probably be a bit sore in the morning.

A Swift Half

I have been persuaded to run the Mansfield half this year by debs, my brothers girlfriend.
That gives me about 5 weeks to train. *gulp*

Just been for a run over the woods in the pouring rain:-
3.1 miles
32 mins
154 average heart rate

OK its not that fast but the weather was shite and there were a few hills - that's my excuse.

But 10 minute miles means it will take me 2hrs 10min not allowing for fatigue, hot weather, blisters, injuries etc etc

Oh Dear.
