    Well done Sally - I am not surprised your legs are feeling it! I am heading out this evening for a similar distance.

    I have just printed off the entry form for my Dad's memorial 10k run on Good Friday - seems a bit strange, *sigh* It would be great to get my much longed for sub 60min 10k done that day, but I fear that I will be a blubbering wreck for most of it!

    Anyway, must stop being melancholy - I have work to do and miles to run!

  • Hi everyone, just popping in to say hello whilst on my lunch break. I walked 4.84k on the treadie after work on Monday (50 min 44) and had a rest day yesterday. Just as well really as I have developed a sore throat complete with an annoying cough and a headache. Will see how I feel after work today but have the feeling that this may be another rest day - very frustrating. Well done to all those getting out there; will be back joining you soon.

    Did 4 miles last night, just over 30 mins. Need a new sensor for my nike+ (after less than a year!), so don't know exactly.

    Knee's giving me gyp again, no idea why. Am fitting in lots of rest days, but with football twice a week, it means not much running progress. Oh well, slowly but surely...

    Evening All!

    Well done on the run UKevas - remember to take it easy out there on the ice please :D

    Well second run of the day completed for me :D a perfect 6 miler - was a bit angry about work (frustrated is perhaps a better word) so felt like I wasnt making any effort but got round in 52 minutes on a 90 pulse - um wow thats nearly 8:30 miling for 6 miles not out of breath and hardly breaking a sweat - oooo I like this going slowly lark if it makes that seem easy :D

    So feet up and lots of yummy food now!:D :D

    Ukevas - well done on getting a run in, hope your injury nursing goes well!

    Becky - 10 miles for the day and feeling good by the looks of it, I think your little tendon strain can be firmly placed in the mere niggle category.:D And the same pace as you did in the St Albans 10 - on a 90 pulse!!!!! I think your training is starting to pay off!!!:D :D

    I did think about doing an extra four actually since I was flying along but decided to save it for intervals tomorrow :D

    Another good run from you - wow 33 miles impressive :D
