After the long run last week I've taken a little time for recovery and only run 3 times.
I woke up on Tuesday morning early, with the sun actually streaming through the window so how could I resist an hour running across the Heath. Still nice and boggy under foot, running past Kenwood House it doesn't get much better!
So I ran around, made it to the top of Parliament Hill and watched London wake up across the city, fantastic.
I then made it back home and made my way to the gym for an hour's session with Andy.
We had a movement and stretching session and he seems quite pleased with my flexibility and movement; I have been working hard since my injury in this area so I was chuffed with his comments.
We discussed the day of the marathon and all the preparation required, his experience and knowledge really, really helps me!
I have a huge amount of respect for everything he's achieved in his career and how he is as a person and communicator.
On Wednesday I had my friend from work staying, Colman, he's training for a 5k so we went for a short run into the Heath. Good fun.
Friday lunchtime run was great, I was in Dorset so was able to do a beach run.
I worked hard, the sand is hard work!
I did 3 sets of quicker pace than I would normally run between 8 & 12 minutes each with a 5 minute run in between, sounds easier than it was......
