16 miles in the park this morning. 7 on my own and then I met up with the gang. I think we were all struggling a bit. Just as well shaz brought the cattle prod! Ro and I got in an extra mile as we're both sticklers for rounding up the miles!! Great last mile too.
Pace overall was 9'21, time 2'29

Well done K. Enjoyed the chat at the end. Fair play for the miles before we met. Still laughing at you going up and down the carpark. I was getting dizzy watching you

Nice going on the 16 miler, you make it sound so easy and it looks like you are raring to get back into Marathon training!

5 miles tonight in 45'07. The legs felt tired for the second half and my hands were bloody freezing.
Makes a change from earlier in the week when I was considering short sleeves again!!
