Lunch time running... the devils run.... Today I decided to embark on a daily 3km challenge on my lunch break. The point of this I hear you ask? To trick the mind into thinking this quick pace for the 3km is my regular pace, meaning that when long run days/race day comes around you brain reacts well to the slower pace. It's your mind's way of giving you a little hug when you are chipping away at the 21km distance. Benefits... getting my daily dose of endorphins whilst still in work, negatives... those who have to endure the o'dur d sweat haha

My Legs are Hungover....... After embarking on a gruelling 24 hours of training yesterday, I am taking a well earned day of rest. I completed two PT sessions in under 12 hours which were dominated by strength and conditioning and a high intensity exercise class called 'Pound'. For those not familiar with Pound it is a 45 minute class of amazing rock music and floor pounding with ripstix. Its a clever way to disguise a major squat fest haha. Tomorrow sees another PT sesh followed by a coupling of beers! - please DONATE!
