Sunday 17 September.

A short run just to make up the miles really. It turned out to be a lot slower than I thought it was due to the fact the my breathing was all over the place, making me have to wak quite a bit, maybe they are spraying the fields or something. I went to the seafront but it wasn't feeling much better there and I laboured through the run, glad when it was over.
Well, that's 26 miles this week and I am pleased to have got back to a reasonable amount quite quickly.
The toe/foot is protesting a little but not too badly. It will be a lighter mileage week next week because of the race Sunday so the foot will get a rest before that.
See?? Being sensible!!

What a difference. Last night's run was quicker, easier and much more enjoyable than Sunday's and no trouble with the breathing at all.
I went to the club as I won't be going on Thursday, too close to Windsor on Sunday for a hard session. We had a good run around Benfleet, as usual I didn't have a clue where I was and the time flew by. Quite a hilly run again, on the roads now as its too dark for x country.
