Since my training began 4.5 weeks ago, I've racked up the best part of a hundred miles. Aside from the slight nagging in my knees when I go for a longer run, I'm generally feeling pretty positive about the whole thing.
I polished off another 10 miler at the weekend, this time I was in the flooded Midlands. I ran alongside the Stourport canal to the river Severn, where the last lock from the canal to the river was completely submerged. Obviously, the route we'd picked to run along the river for a little way was completely out of bounds.
The 10 mile run was followed up with a glass of wine (after the water, bananas and skimmed milk of course) and a huge Sunday lunch. Needless to say, this combination is lethal, in terms of making you want to sleep. Not an ideal way to spend an afternoon with the in-laws.
It's a rest day today, but Tuesday's run will see me through the 100 mile mark.
