2 Day's off. "Definitley"

So, because I ran on an off day I have totally ballsed (is that even a word) my plan up. So now I have to run on all my off days and have it off on my running days. (Now that would be an interesting run).

I decided to rest Thursday and Friday as I realised the people who set the plan up know more about running than me. So I pencilled in Saturday for an Increased time and distance run and then had a couple of bottles of cider (I blame the kids) and went to bed too late, thus waking at 7:15am and not the 6:00am I had planned. I put the run off until after the most exciting part of my weekend..........MORRISONS!

Yes, Morrisons. Now don't get me wrong I don't mind food shopping as It goes, and taking twin girls who want to eat everything in sight is challenging to say the least. But what really riles me is old people. Why do they go shopping on a Saturday. They have all week to go shopping while I am at work, but no "Let's nip down morries and piss off everyone because we can" It's just plain mental. I actively try and avoid this task but these people seem to enjoy it and don't even get me startd with old people on mobility scooters............!

So, shopping done I went for the run. I changed the route slightly so as to increase the distance (and avoid running up a bleedin hill) and I did feel much better in myself. I ran none stop for 2 miles, only stopping to walk up gornies (believe me paula radcliffe would have to walk up gornies). This for me is great news as the training must be working and any improvement just spurs me on to keep improving and beating my times. I also think incorporating some breathing exercises as helped focus me more, although I do apologise to any one who I may have run past for looking like a fat bloke having contractions.

I did rush to sports direct 20 mins before closing today because they had an offer on walking boots (re: 3 peaks) only to find they only had a 9 and 1/2 me being a 10/11 I tried them on anyway because £8 is a bargain and thought whats a few blisters if a can save £30, but then I admitted defeat. I did buy a jazzy water bottle though


Just imagine how fast I will be with this, combined with some new earphones!
