I've been out for my first run since the hundred this evening. Lovely run out at 'social pace' from my local pub. Just a small issue of a large chunk of the skin from my right foot coming off when I took my socks off afterwards :-O

A fair exchange, DT :)

I was hoping tonight might have been the start of a summer streak but even a mile 'saver' will be tough tomorrow :-(

Funnily enough I was about to post on the birdwatchers' thread that we still have some swifts in the village so you're absolutely correct! :-)

I'm removing chunks of my feet most night while watching TV. Kinky is not overly impressed with my nightly pickings :)

Done a few runs over the last couple of weeks, but definitely heavy-legged still. Hoping to get some spring back soon.

Stef has been 'picking' too but I thought mine were okay until last night! :-(

L100 is next year's target event. I don't like being beaten. I was telling a club-mate last night about chatting with you flanker back at the school on the Sunday morning

yep, going to be back again next year (assuming I can get in!). I most certainly don't like being beaten 4 times in a row.

At least now I know that I am more than capable of it if I can keep my body together (or more to the point now I've got some sensible medical advice about what I can do with painkillers to keep me moving if I do get problems). I also know that I can keep moving even when the feet are falling apart, even if the after effects aren't much fun.

Just wish I didn't have to wait 12 months to put this to bed...

I'm not going to say I underestimated how hard L100 but let's just say it was even tougher than I expected. Stef and I have already sorted out some training plans for next spring
