"Real life" has got in the way of my running this week - my working hours are getting longer and longer the closer we get to the end of the tax year and I have had to fit in parents evenings, sports presentations for the children, working in my second job etc.......

I don't seem to have had time for ANYTHING this week and am shattered! Hoping to go for a run tomorrow to start next week off nicely, but it will be no more than 10 miles, with my attempt at 20 NEXT weekend

Happy running everyone......becky, I am sure you said something, but then again, maybe I was mistaken

well it was 7.7k actually and after the first ten mins the burger that I ate last night stopped feeling like a lead weight in my stomach.....

I really tried to run slower this week and I felt like I was running in slow motion, but i did average 11.19 mins per mile....it felt easier.

Life has got a little bit in the way for me too, I have two years accounts to do for nightmare client (SIL :rotfl: she won't mind me saying that) that have to be finished urgently but I am hoping to start training in earnest this week...honestly, simplycynical!

Ha, ha, I was just making sure you were still with us Glad everything is ok; work/life does get in the way doesn't it??

I'm impressed with the 11.19 Sammy, I find running slowly soooooooo difficult as I always feel that I'm in a hurry.

What a lovely day today - started with the usual Saturday morning 5k, although today the venue was Wimbledon, with a fastest time so far of 19:21- very happy with that considering the miles in the last 4 days (58)!:D

Then this afternoon went for a little stroll around sunny London - and Becky has just discovered that our little meander was actually 9 miles. Time flies when you're having fun!:D:D:D

Hope everyone has enjoyed the glorious weather today and good luck with tomorrow's long runs.
