Another post with no running!

With my foot still being sore I decided on no running during the week so that hopefully I would be okay for Sat’s run with the glee club.

Tues 13th Oct

30 mins cycling

Body Pump

Wed 14th Oct

Ben Lomond

Thurs 15th Oct

40 mins climbing wall

Sat 17th Oct

I mile run, I mile walk

Now I know that Lomond and the climbing wall were not exactly letting my foot rest properly but I had my two best boys staying those days and we have been promising them for months that we would take them up Ben Lomond as their first munro so I did not want to back down.  And we were not exactly slow going up, or down!  They put me to shame with their running to the summit!

In hindsight I should have done a very small run on Friday to see how my foot was and not wasted all that time, effort and petrol driving to Tyndrum, especially when I did not even see anyone but hindsight is a wonderful thing!  Anyway now I am really annoyed about my foot. Hoping to catch up with a long run next weekend (Drymen to Balmaha by road, then Rowardennand and back to Balmaha and back to Drymen via the WHW if anyone is interested) but if my foot is not better and I can’t do it then I think France may be out.  I can’t go on not enough training when I have to finish the 42 miles in under 9 1/2 hrs (I think).  So I was rather grumpy yesterday!
