Well training is in full swing, its Sunday night and I am sitting here nursing very sore legs and a chaffed backside. The thought of an ice bath almost materialized, until I came to my senses and realised I did not have enough ice. Completed my longest training run of 18 miles. The last 3 of those were a real struggle and I had to promise myself a hot cup of tea at the end followed by a roast dinner. Bad news is I did not get the tea but Sarah is busy cooked an organic, cornflake fed, 20ft per chicken free ranging creatine free chicken. £7 for some bones and skin.
The training is on schedule at the moment although this past week saw me starting my first week in the office at my new employer, and no midweek training occured. The two weeks before that had me working in the restaurants that we supply. From chopping mushrooms to cooking pizza's to waitering on lunch time diners. The good news is the staff meals offered a choice of carbo-loading pasta dishes. I did a few midweek club training sessions which had us doing fartleks through Richmond Park in the dark, not sure what the deer thought of that. Don't think we will be running there this coming week as they are culling the herd, unless the coach thinks that will improve out perfromances.
The wedding plans are coming on nicely and I need to book the honeymoon. Treking through the Kalahari or sailing across the world have been put on hold. The marathon will be the endurance test for the year so a beach and some sun if what I need to look for. Any suggestions gladly accepted.
