Wk47 – 5M Winter Series wi Gill
Another one of my 5 mile runs with Gill this morning. I was better at getting out of bed on time and managed to get to the sports centre on time for 630. The weather was ace this morning… it … Continue reading
Asda & Jasper’s own blog!
I’ve finally done it and set up a blog for Asda & Jasper (our toy cats – ahem!) I didn’t train on Tuesday as I spent any spare time setting it all up (Tuesday and Monday night). Asda & Jasper’s blog is … Continue reading
Wk47 – Circuits wi Gill
I dragged my sorry little tired ass out of bed a little late this morning… about 6:18 if I remember rightly… up dressed, out for 6:27… and I was a little late for meeting Gill at 630am. I must do … Continue reading
Long Run Route with Jackie

Wk46 – 5.1M Queens Park steady
As I’d only done ONE run this week, I was keen to get out for one more. My legs were fine after the walk yesterday, the only thing I felt was slightly tender glutes, but nothing too bad. I decided … Continue reading

The end of this week and Long Run Training Plans
This weeks training I feel like I’ve had a rather quiet week (that was the plan), it’s been a bit strange. Sort of enforced rest from running, and no pressure to run has meant that I’ve only run once, on … Continue reading

Rest day and Santa Claus Speedo Aquacoach
