Day 37 - 9 mile run

As per my training schedule yesterday was a 9 mile run and wouldnt you just know it it was blowing a gale and pouring with rain. After a little hesitation i decided i better get out and get it done. I knew i wouldnt do it today as i was going out last night and im a touch the worse for wear today!

Luckily the rain stopped and the wind died down as i was running so it wasnt too bad just the occassional gust. I was keeping up quite a nice pace at around 8.45 per mile until i hit the last mile which is a killer hill and my eventual average went up to 9.12!!

Anyway i finished the run in 1hr 22min which i was quite please with and it wAs also the longest run so far in my training and no reaction from my calf so im beginning to think i am finally over that injury. My ankle is a bit sore but thats ok. Today is a rest day so back into it tomorrow.
