New Year looming

Christmas has been and gone. Now the calm before we do it all agian for new year.
Thats when we need that new year new start regime. Time to get fit!

It shouldn't be a chore, it should be something you enjoy and get something out of it.
If you can't train on your own, try and find a parnter that you can work together with. It makes it easier, fun, and above all, you will keep each other motivated to whatever goals you have set.

Hereward Relay Update.

Sunday the 27th Nov.
Very windy this morning, luckily is was mostly a tail wind.

We finished a very credable 14th team out of around 130.
We were also the first vets team!
I did the second stage - 10.4 miles mostly off road in 1.08.40
This gave me second vet overall in this leg. Missing out of the vets award by just 6 seconds!

Great day overall

Palermo Half Marathon

Last weekend 18th nov to 21st nov I went to sicilly with 15 other Riverside Runners.
With a very large amount of drink on the days leading up to the half marathon it wasn't looking to good.
On race day the sun was shining and a lovely 22c. Didnt feel as bad as I thought I would! Anything under the one hour thirty would be a bonus. I felt better as the race went on.
I finished in 1.26.43. 67th out of over a thousand runners, an 15th in my age group. (40-44)

Then back on the beer!!
