I went in the rain and did 3 miles. My stomach is playing up so didn’t want to chance much more.

Good use of the bus pass LD. I waited until the rain passed and got out for 5 miles :)

ITG 🇮🇸
I made my first run of the week, thinking of Swittle <3

500m warm up; 4k tempo-ish; potter to finish.

The snow was mostly cleared so I ran in my trail shoes rather than the spikes. It is certainly easier, but the difference is maybe 10sec per km, which doesn't explain the other 20sec I have lost (gained?)

Frostbite problem solved by purchase of padded overskirt which appears to do the job.

Foot hurts again, probably the plantar, which makes my decision about the scheduled LSR this weekend a lot easier.

I'll be on the injury and menopause sofa if anyone is looking for me.

Evening gonks. Hope your race can go ahead safely LD, ours should be OK, last time I attempted it, it was windy so was hoping for good conditions.

Well done everyone who ran, hope your foot behaves ITG and good luck for the thing I read about, 2 minutes ago, and have immediately forgotten about. But you will be brilliant. ;-)

Best of luck to Som and Sweetie and Caz and Daisy for their races this weekend, assuming the weather is kindly. MrS will be at Brighton too and im expecting a swift turnaround as we have to get to the football :-)

Morning!
Thanks Dipps, bit nervous about the 10k tomorrow as that is quite a long way for me at the moment! One foot in front of the other and all that.
Good luck to Som and LD today, RRR-Caz and MrS for tomorrow and any other racers this weekend.

Morning! My race is on, and dare I say it without tempting fate, it doesn't seem too windy!
