It wasn’t a bad week of running. Managed to complete all my training runs and have been making sure that i’ve been resting up when I can.
It’s been a beautiful autumn week whilst out running. Which can often make the running a lot easier. The colours of the trees, the mists hanging over the fields, the sun rising – how can I not be enjoying the runs!
The months have fast disappeared, the summer’s near enough gone and September is almost a blur. This soon brings us to October which means that i’ve got three more long training runs to put in before the Snowdonia marathon. I’m not daunted by this – i’m hoping the training will continue on plan which means that on the day i’ll have enough inside me to be able to finish and enjoy myself.
I finished off the week this morning with a 20 miler. I had a struggle last Sunday and only did 17 of the 20 miles I wanted to do. Last week the legs felt tired but i’m more than sure that the problem was mental – I had a lack of confidence in myself which is very strange. I’m not the fastest of runners but i’ve never before not finished a distance that I set out to do. So i’ll take that on as experience.
This morning’s run was a two looper:
