Run like the wind

Weekend plans were turned on their head a bit, and I struggled to keep focused, but in the end all was OK. Ray kindly drove me to Richmond Park so I could enjoy my last long run in the sun. There were hundreds of people out basking in the 18 degrees which had hit London town. So many runners, all parading in their marathon outfit – charity vests galore.

The sun was hard – I’m half praying that it won’t be like this a week today, yes, a week today. I had to drink far more than I am used to, and everything felt a little bit harder… I may have to dig out the running cap!

I ran 9.5 miles.
