Total distance ran in training - 46 miles
Total distance this week - 11 miles
This is probably going to be a recurrent theme throughout this blog, bu goodness was I knackered today. training whilst on shifts really is hard going. the last time I did this I was on a 9 - 5, Monday to Friday and let me tell you that was a lot easier.
Although I've mentioned this before today really was about saying, I'm mentally tired, not physically tired, get out there and get it done.
I got home at 7pm and got changed and got straight out. I dont know if it was because I was having to concentrate or just the lack of expectation because I felt tired but I got out there and felt really good all the way round, my breathing felt good and I felt I was really moving and no real tail off over the last half mile or so.
When I crossed the line it was 42.45 !!!!!! A full minute faster than yesterday, go figure, especially since I had had virtually a 12 hour sleep on Saturday night. Maybe it was the 6 slices of nimble, tin of tuna and banana I had for lunch so I had plenty of fuel in the tank. Now I'm gonna have a big bowl of boiled rice and some salad for dinner, yum
