Sunday 22 September 2013 - 15 days to go!

7am - This morning I did what I'm now referring to as 'The Broadlands Run' (see map). This is an 8 mile round trip. Back in time for breakfast - croissants - without a guilty conscience! - felt I'd earned it! That's the nice thing about doing all this running, takes all the guilt out of indulging.

The run was a bit of a struggle if I'm honest, but I did manage to complete it in 78 minutes which I was reasonably pleased with. First thing I did when I got back was work out what time that would equate to over the full distance - around 2hrs 10mins - If I could do that on the day I'd be more than happy! Actually I'd be amazed.

The one thing I have noticed since I've been running is how pleasant and polite people are in the running community - Always a friendly nod or a wave. Mind you there's it usually only runners or dog walkers out at that time on a Sunday!
