Last week we had a lovely camping week at the beautiful lake
district near lake Ullswater. So
training that week consisting of walking, eating and having the odd drink or
two.

This weekend gone we were back home and went for afternoon
tea to the hotel we got Married in for my mother in laws birthday and it was
beyond lovely. It was fantastic being
back and it brought amazing memories back.
I want to go back just the two of us as it means so much to me.

I have been so worried about it all but when my number
arrived a felt strangely calm and excited about it and thought to myself, I can
and will do this.
I woke up on Sunday a little later than planned and had some
oats before hitting the road. I wanted
to hit 8 miles at least but as my hip is just on the mead I decided to take it
easy and see where it took me. I set of
nice and easy and soon got into my stride.
Somehow I managed a fab 9 miles. Half way through I felt my energy sap a
bit but I just can’t stomach energy drinks or gels at the moment. No idea
why. In fact I might have ran more but
my Garmin was playing up for the first mile that it told me it took 17 minutes
to complete. I am slow but not that
slow!!
So we are only at Tuesday and last night I managed a great
drill session in the pool and today I am having a lunch time run. I am looking forward to it but the weather
does not look good.
I cannot express how much my trainers have changed my
running enjoyment. It is so much better
and my hip pain has almost gone. My
physio has given me exercises as my right side is much weaker than my left and
once levelled out I should see much improvement.
What are you training for and how is the training going?
