Day 12 - Muddy Mornings

8.2 Miles (36 Total)
78 Minutes (5 Hours 41 Minutes)


Morning all.  First proper long run this morning.  For those who know the geography, home to the 'Smiff then 'Smiff Bridge to Kew Bridge on the south tow-path then back home via Chiswick High Road.


I am particularly pleased about this morning's run due in part to self inflicted 'poor preparation':

  • Several pints of London Pride
  • Fish & Chips
  • Lack of proper rehydration
This coupled with a VERY muddy tow-path (high tide and lots of rain yesterday) meant that progress was rather tricky.  In addition the rest of Saturday involves, getting rid of the kids (cheers mum!), going to the pub for lunch, watching England vs Aussies, then going to a 40th Birthday party.  I think therefore getting a good run banked early in the weekend is rather necessary.

In other news thank you to the 10 or so hilarious people who spotted that taking the 'r' out of Lardy Boy perhaps better describes the author.  I really am in awe of your clever word play......

Likely rest day tomorrow.

Til then

  1. You're getting a good range of training conditions, I see! (including London Pride & Thames mud ...) When do you start Sam's training?
