Gggrrrrr - my pesky job conspired against me today, and I couldn't leave in time to get the second run of the day in

However, I did manage to get 7.5 miles in at lunchtime, so all was not lost....

I was right- got VERY wet 2 runs for 11.55 miles. Oh well, it is my recovery week. Next 3 weeks should all be 3 figure weeks if all goes to plan.

Well done Jason! That's a fantastic recovery week!

I got a touch damp out on the trails too mate. 10 miles of hill work for me.

JD - 3 figure weeks? Never done one in training!

Blimey - taking out the two zero's means now it is really close.

Interestingly, the Fetchies have noticed that and are encouraging folks to get out there, which means now would be a great time for a mid-race surge....

12.5 miles for me today, 5 tomorrow, and then hopefully a nice 20-22 miles on Sunday am.

Come on Peeps - we can definitely do this!!!

I agree with YoungPup... they must realise that they're risking getting beaten.

Today is a rest day... maybe followed by a 20 miler tomorrow and maybe a shorter run on Sunday.

Emmy - I am due a rest day too. So tempting to run but am gong to resist! Sorry team RW. 26 or so tomorrow though

12m tonight- and it changed our average very little..... Can we all commit to extending our next run by at least 0.5 to 1m? That will make a difference IF we all do it.... I'm supposed to be doing 8 tomorrow, I'll run twice and make it around 11.5

A 20 a bit very wet and cold miles for me...I was thinking about you all when I could choose to turn in at 18..... And thought "NO. The fetching can only win for ONE month!!"

Everyone is doing so well that early on I cannot keep up with the average mileage. I don't mind, though, you all go on ahead.

Nice day out in Hereford with family today-minstrels, jesters and knights everywhere today and loads of activities- including me and mini jd dressing up as medieval knights- didn't realise chain mail was so heavy! 11.25m for the day squeezed in either side of the fun- we're edging ahead at the moment

Kathy H - you don't need to worry about forcing you mileage - its about doing what you can do

I'm just about to head out for a gentle 5 mile recovery after the LSR yesterday and then I'll add in my miles for the weekend.

Keep going guys! We're so close!

Morning all,

at least that wet stuff wasn't falling from the sky this morning. 13.20 miles for me this morning, tried a completely new route and loved it!
