      @Black Orchid  and @den1mhead - this is an amazing challenge and I honestly can't think of a better cause.  You're both wonderfully fit, so I'm sure you'll be out there at the front of the field.  Good luck with the training, let us know how it goes.  Come visit us again soon.
      😘  😘  😘

        @Black Orchid and @den1mhead , Not a problem. It's a very good cause, which I donate to over this side of the pond as well, and nice to through the forum know someone competing.

          For those of you that dont know, me and Jules are raising money for a worthy charity by running the Bath half marathon.

          Today I was training alone as I am running in an additional half marathon, on 13th November, without Jules.
          For the Bath half me and Jules plan to train every other day.

              More training today which I found hard going however, when I reflect on the pain and discomfort that those touched by cancer, and their families, have to endure it puts the struggles of running training into perspective.

                        @den1mhead Nice work!  That's a pretty solid pace over that distance.  Do you have a usual running route?

                          Cheers @Engineer. Where I live is very hilly so I try to mix up the route.
                          I have added today's route to my post FYI.

                                        @Brock you had some great weather on Sunday for the race.  I was out on the course cheering for an old teammate of mine.  Definitely wished I could have raced but my achilles bogged me down.

                                          Today's training was about increasing Jules' strength and endurance and we both completed 10 miles which was a great result and the longest distance she has run to date 🙂

                                            Absolutely, it was perfect weather! Even better than last year. That's cool you were there, and sorry to hear about your injury! I'll see you there next year then [emoji6]
