    Ha, ha I was thinking about a gentle 2 miles tomorrow Becky and then something a little longer on Sunday depending on how I feel.

    The other thing I was going to ask advice on was how best to prepare for the Half marathon on 15th November? I'm not sure what to run over the next few weeks; I'm lost without a plan. :o

    Glad you enjoyed runclub Linda - how far is it tonight?

    It's a steady 6.5 miler tonight the last 2 miles is uphill though, not particularly steep, just a bit of a steady slog
    Looking forward to it though. :T:T


    the fish man came this morning so I've had my smoked haddock & scrambled eggs for brekky

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Dont worry I'll build it in :D

    I should get time to do a new plan starting on Monday in the next few days - do you have any different prefs to last re: rest days/long run day etc...?

    Mmmm Linda - I've got fried tuna steak and salad for lunch - its lush :D

    Oooh, that sounds yummy Linda :D

    Thanks Becky I appreciate your help. :A I'm quite happy with the days as they were - I like Saturdays as rest days as it means I can socialise (i.e. have a drink) on a Friday night and am quite happy for Sunday to be LSR day. So no changes necessary. :D

    And for anyone feeling a bit down this afternoon I am posting a link to Sunday's photos - OMG some of them are truly awful!!!! I didn't know that I could pull so many weird faces :rotfl::rotfl: Just stick number 948 in the search box at the top on the right hand side and chuckle your socks off!!!!
