Week 8

Another disrupted week of running. Hamish turned 2 on Monday and my folks were down for the weekend for his party, so that meant no running on Saturday (Running was replaced with Hamishs party then 5 hours in the pub with my dad and brother playing darts) or Sunday (Hangover!!).

That meant I had to cover 12 miles on Monday which I split into an 8 mile run at lunhtime and then a 4 mile run in the evening.

Tuesday night brought warm but windy conditions, so there was no need for my compression t-shirt and long sleeved top. Those 6 miles were hell and my legs were no for working at all.

I should be at 209.76 miles and I'm currently sitting at 200.44 miles (I came down with a cold after the Nottingham Marathon which set me 12 miles back and post-marathon weeks are always shorter. At the end of week 3 I was just under 16.5 miles down, so I'm slowly catching up)
