What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...

Or so they say...

Today I ran (and I use the term loosely because it was more like staggering come the end) 16 miles with Val and Phil.

Although it was the same distance as last week with Karen, today just seemed so much tougher and we were 20 minutes slower. My legs felt so heavy and my calves really tight.  Definitely a case of putting in maximum effort but getting nowhere fast!! Never mind, you get runs like that from time to time. Despite the struggle it was a perfect day for running, and I think I would have enjoyed the scenery more had I not been busy dying! and I did spare a thought for Karen who is doing the Gloucester marathon today.

 

I think my legs are going to be very stiff tomorrow.

It must have been because they dont give you the same attention level as wendys windy mates and did not let you winge enough to get into your stride.

Oh there was plenty of wingeing I can assure you!! In fact I'm surprised Val hasn't already confirmed it!!
And anyway, Karen told me she missed listening to me complaining and moaning.....
