Mar 28

Today was a half training run, half race. I had to be quite disciplined and hold myself back – racing such a distance so late in my training would not be a good idea. (too long to recover etc) I was so glad Camilla was there to run with, as it was a small race, covering 4 laps of a 5 mile course. We chatted pretty much non stop for the first three laps, the fourth, we speeded up a little, so talked a little less. The time actually flew by, with only the last half of the last lap a bit of a chore. My usual hip creak set in, and my right calf was pretty tight.

We gelled every 5miles, which coincided with the water stations. We practiced walking and drinking which actually is the best thing to do – the water goes in the mouth rather than down the front.

We ran a little faster than we usually do for our long runs, it was nice to get a real feel for my Marathon pace. Again, another good run which made me feel like the extra 6.2 miles are just about doable…

I’m sitting eating pizza now – guilt free, seeing as I have just burnt 2,360 calories!
