Wk51 – Christmas Eve 16 miler
I wanted to run long on Christmas Eve morning… it was a Saturday morning when I normally do my long runs and I thought I’d aim for running for around 2 hours. I didn’t really have a route for once, … Continue reading
Wk47 – 5M Winter Series wi Gill
Another one of my 5 mile runs with Gill this morning. I was better at getting out of bed on time and managed to get to the sports centre on time for 630. The weather was ace this morning… it … Continue reading
