A UFO has appeared over Inverness - a large round glowing orb, the likes of which haven't been seen in many days.......

So, to make up for the roll & sausage I've just scoffed, and the bag of chewy Werther's I'm just about to scoff:

What: 7 mile route, trying not to walk up any of the killer hill.
Why: As above.

Happy Birthday Martin.

Scarlett - go for it - almost everyone who posts on here says joining a club has been the best thing they have done for their running.

Scarlett,
I second Nessie's recommendation to join a club. I never belonged to one until last November (eventhough I've been running for about 8 years) and since joining have made lots of new friends and taken 3 minutes off my 10K PB!!!
Go for it!

Happy Birthday Martin - hope you've had your run by now and are out celebrating. By the way, it was you wanting ideas about your wedding anniversary? What did you do in the end - how did it go?

What 7 or 8 miler

Why At my parents witht he kids - no excuse not to. It was a good run and I felt very strong in the last 2 or 3 miles. Need to get some longer runs in soon. It's all slipped a bit since Windsor...

Last rest day Yesterday

Happy Birthday Martin.

Me, im getting very frustrated at the moment,having just came back from my hols and doing some super runs in Greece im now being attacked by this nasty case of flu which is doing the rounds.

So i popped out to my local running shop and purchased some new running shoes to cheer me up ( Asics Gel Kayanos ) cant wait to get out and put them through some hell.

Well happy running people hope to be back on the roads soon.

Many happy returns Martin.

I'm always late on here, not having the benefit of internet access at work, so it's more of a resume again.

What: nothing
Why: Long run yesterday (and a hilly 10m at that)

A bit pointless really!

Happy Birthday Martin!

What: 10 miles @ 7.30 pace. Pleased as it's a hilly out and back route and I had a head wind coming back. Pace was very consistent.

Then went for a swim to relax my muscles.

Why: because it was nice out and my calf was feeling ok to push the pace a little.

Last rest: Monday
Last hard: tonight
