Brunski Apr 2018 12:12pm, 7 Apr 2018 949 posts	0 Brunski Sorry to hear you're not sleeping well JDA, hopefully that changes tonight! I went to parkrun, gave myself a chance at a decent time with a 5:50 uphill first mile but wasn't feeling it so was quite sensible and didn't bury myself - 18:07, all miles just under 6.
Fordyboy Apr 2018 5:46pm, 7 Apr 2018 131 posts	0 Fordyboy Thanks again all for the well wishes. Lovely day/evening here. Managed 4 miles around the port this morning. Knee so so. Best of luck tomorrow JDA. I’ll let you all know how I get on.
Little Miss Happy Apr 2018 6:01pm, 7 Apr 2018 696 posts	0 Little Miss Happy It's only pain Fordy (as long as the physio doesn't think you're going to do any damage running on it) you can block it out! Hope conditions stay good. Forecast is looking good for tomorrow jda.
Chris Apr 2018 6:40pm, 7 Apr 2018 951 posts	0 Chris If it helps jda I normally sleep 8 hours a day but for the last 2 weeks I’ve been lucky to get 4 and still managed a decent 10k yesterday so get those negative thoughts out of your head and go smash it!
Windsor Wool Apr 2018 6:47pm, 7 Apr 2018 3,502 posts	0 Windsor Wool Best wishes to JDA and Fordy for tomorrow. Embrace the pain of those final miles and it’ll block out anything else going on in your mind / body. Your training has been immense this time JDA. Bring home what you deserve...
