I’d taken pretzels, salted nuts and a marmite bagel for the end of the run but couldn’t eat them. I tried very hard to balance my sugar intake but I must have still overdone it somehow.

Hope you feel better soon Paula.

I've had a really good weekend down south, I'll be leaving here just before midday for the 200+ mile journey home. :-)

I hope you get the rest you need Paula xx

My back is very stiff, which is unusual for me. I think because I was 'marching' and not running, I found it much easier to keep my core strong and my head up. My body is clearly not used to that :-) I generally collapse in the core area ;-)

I probably could do a couple of gentle miles but I have zero intention of doing so 😊

Garmin tells me I still need 20 hours recovery and I'm going to take every single one!

Evening all. I hope marathon soreness and assorted under-the-weather-ness wears off soon.

Regular (well, becoming regular) Monday evening swim for me. Not as enjoyable as usual as half the pool was closed for staff training, so all a bit crowded and frantic.

Morning peeps :)

Hope the weary racers slept well last night x

Got rather spectacular and pleasing DOMS this morning after a good nights sleep, today is rest - well work and associated marching

Enjoying being a London tourist on Swittle Quest, here I am this month
