Fairly embarrassing totals this week, I've dropped off a bit on some of the stuff since we haven't been at the gym but I need to not let the lack of gym and lack of imminent fight mean my training drops!

I took an extra rest day on Sunday. My legs were so sore after Fridays race and I was hungover. Three drinks at a family party and I'm in bed all day. Must stick to two in future.. It must be my lightweight limit! By the way, I figured out how to look at the elevation on Mike's garmin readout, I've included a picture of the hilliest route we had done before Fridays race. There's quite a stark difference!

The race elevation.

Mike accidentally hit pause a few times cause he was wearing the garmin on the inside of his wrist so he knocked it, but you can still get the idea. The highest hill we had run before was about 150 feet, these hills were all around 300-400 feet! I need to get to this area to train again a few times before the race next year, and I will run it again next year, even though my legs still hurt now!

  1. I still think you are both totally amazing and inspirational for doing that race! I'll be remembering you for my motivation when I'm out running bloody big hills!
