Wow well a good week/month had in training. covered a lot of 5k and 10k but not got upto the 10 miles yet. i've been told i shouldnt push past 8miles in training so think i'll aim for that and keep to my steady 10k sessions. thanks to everyone thats given so far. please look at my stats since May 2017 to date. shows im taking this seriously

So another update... another 5k tonight, which was difficult. took routes up by Beamish in the woods. lots of mud and uphill, was difficult but worth while. i think the 10k from a couple days ago took it out of me.. still... only 23 days to go to the big day..

Well it's been tough but fun.. I've been trying more recently to stick to the 5k runs through the week and progress into the 10k on weekends. I can happily say I've exceeded that and now steadily run 10k through the week too.. Think I'll try a 10 mile before the end of August in prep for the day. Thanks for all the donations so far and please keep giving..
