2 weeks to go!

With only a couple of weeks to go, I had to go out for another run this morning. In all honesty, it was pretty uneventful!!

I left the house early on a Sunday morning, when most people were still asleep. The first five miles or so actually didn't feel too bad - I felt I was actually running rather than power walking, and I wasn't too tired. The weather was a major contributor to this - the past couple of weeks, it's been pretty sunny, whereas it was cloudy and breezy this morning, so it actually felt ok.

I started to feel it at around the 6 mile mark (the uphill sections didn't help), and the last four miles were pretty hard work - very hard work actually. I have to admit that I walked more than I wanted to, but my legs were completely knackered. I think this may have been because I pushed myself a bit too hard at the start of the run.

After getting home, I was mildly disappointed to find out that my overall time was only 5 secs a mile better than last time. As much as I would like to get a good time for the run, as I've said before, I'll be happy with just completing the run!
