If in doubt or on any medications please consult your doctor, make sure you are very well hydrated at all times specially on warmer days and keep some emergency […]
Thursday 8th December #97 done this morning in 1:47′ Started from Radbrook Community Centre at 9.30 Was raining when I started but only fine rain and sun was out and shining by the time I finished just after 11. Route wasn’t too challenging but legs were still sore from Sunday’s trail run and yesterday’s intervals […]
Thursday 1st December #95 done this morning. Had a sore knee since yesterday, happened after training session with Marcus. I strapped it and smothered it with deep heat. It was a very icy cold morning and I made sure I did an extended warmup. Had to combine the run with work once again because of […]
Thursday 17th November #91 done this morning and number of remaining runs is now in single digits 🙂 Mixed work and pleasure today ( do not try this at home) and after a long 10k session of hill training with Rob I carried on and ran the remaining 11k to complete the half marathon distance, […]
Sunday 6th November #88, nice number, third half this week! Ran with Paul Williams, we met at the Gateway at 10.30, I ran a mile warm up to get there and Paul a similar distance from Copthorne. Tough course which I partly run before, but was very enjoyable. The pace we kept at was almost […]
Thursday 1st September #69 This morning I completed #69. Was a lovely bright morning, a slight breeze was blowing to start with but got hotter later on. Started at around 9.20 at Radbrook Centre, ran round the Radbrook Green Park pond, took some photos and selfies, waved at a couple of ducks and off I […]
Thursday 18th August #65 #65 completed earlier this afternoon. Was hard work, weather was hot so I took it easy from the start. 22 minutes slower than sunday’s race, legs still felt stiff and my aim was to just complete it safely in under 2 hours. Started at home, and on km 1 on Hubert […]
Wednesday 8th June: #47 was the hardest so far and my slowest solo run to date at 1: 48′ I took my beagles for a walk early in the morning and weather was cloudy and cool. By the time I started my run at 12pm (silly me, never again!) it was boiling hot and not […]
Sunday 15th May: #39 done 😃 Chester Half course is undulating and challenging but not gruelling, very balanced with a good number of climbs, a few long downhills and nasty hill on the last km just before the short flat straight to the finish line not far from the Clock in the city centre. I […]
Sunday 17th April: #31 406 miles done and 904 to go! Remaining runs are in the sixties now 🙂 Was sunny but really cold and windy in the shade, so I kept altering my route to stay in the sun 🙂 During my warm up, just outside my house, Shezz walked past and he wished […]
