Back to it with a slow weighted backpack [8kg] jog/walk. The kg weights behaved well in the bag; no issues. More of these to come. Pretty warm day. Happy to have run about 10 of the miles without any walk breaks.

parkrun Run Director duties. Luckily was me? Turned up to do a course check to find a broken down cherry-picker across the run route with only 35 minutes till the start.
Quickly did a complete course change on the fly [running the planned course to check for any other issues]. Went off without any problems, but came out about 300-400 metres short, but at least everyone got to take part [rather than me cancelling the event].
Of course some still complain after when you adjust the times by 2 minutes; so that there aren’t 100% Pbs for the day.

Walked to work with a tree for re-planting in the morning. A strange 4 mile walk.

Rather shocked! It was wet however? Still, it can’t be correct surely? Jog/walked with a friend in the early morning. Ended up being a good mileage day.

Boston UK marathon. Surprised I seemed so chipper. The photographer found a spot without ankle deep puddles; before hyperthermia set in. Plodding along.
Legs tired today, but inner thighs rubbed raw, oops!

Boston UK marathon. Weather not nice.

Didn’t even get up in time to go and do a parkrun. A little saunter with pie&mash for lunch before the trip up to Boston Uk for a marathon. Very interested to see how it goes, what with hardly a run in 7 weeks; let alone any long runs. A nice relaxing pinter [or few] in the evening.

When back to it I need to get some hills in again.

UK Athletics has announced a “groundbreaking” new joint venture. Too little too late?
