Ding Dong Daisy Dec 2023 1:57pm, 24 Dec 2023 39,378 posts	0 Ding Dong Daisy Hello and welcome Huntsman! I ground out a long (for me) run but it didn't go very well. The run was split into 10 min brisk walk/60 minute run/10 minute run/60 minute run/ walk home. Everything was fine until I csme to the second 60 minutes - running afain after the walk made it really hurt Eventually I decided that brisk walking (which doesn't make it hurt) was more sensible. Even so, nearly 11 miles in 2:24 gives me hope that 13.1 miles will not be too awful at the start of February!

I did have Star Wars on earlier so it's payback in all honesty. Anyway, well done for getting out there LD & Fleecy.
