      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.

      Me and Jules ( @Black Orchid ) are raising money for the Teenage Cancer Trust charity by running the Bath half marathon in March 2017. To read the backstory including information on the race, our motivation and the Teenage Cancer Trust charity click;

            I ate shit yesterday during my morning run, resulting in road rash on both elbows and my right knee.  Watch out for muddy sidewalks folks.  :-\

                @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]

                                      Planning on it.  I did the marathon in 2012/2013 so I'm due to take another swing at it.  Nice course, but very unforgiving.
