Running warm up/down 30:00 [2] 4.0 mi (7:30 / mi)
Run in the pouring rain to the start of the race, milling around before the start and then running home early (but without the right door key - so had to wait around).
Running race 32:48 [5] 10.0 km (3:17 / km)
Mike would say today was either kill or cure. I woke up head achy and with some stomach problems. Really ummed and arrhed about running.
Was glad I did run (and got a pb to boot) but felt like I was going to be sick most of the way round and couldn't push quite as hard as I wanted.
Since coming home have spent the day in bed! - hopefully this is another case of flash flu and that with lots of sleep I will be on the mend on the morrow. Race results here: http://www.steelcitystriders.co.uk/
Lots of PBs from the orienteers including a massive one from Clare.

Running 38:00 [2] 4.65 mi (8:10 / mi)
Run to Oli's then on to pick up the cars in Greystones. Took it nice and gentle, moaning about the fact that tomorrow's race is going to hurt!
Note
Didn't train on Thursday or Friday. Was only planning on having one rest day but events conspired against me and I ended up having 2. It has given my knee a chance to settle and a throbbing toe (based on a blister and slight infection - nice) to clear up.

Running 18:00 [2] 2.0 mi (9:00 / mi)
Pootle into work - knee seems to have calmed down (touch wood).
Running 46:00 [3] 6.5 mi (7:05 / mi)
Was planning on going running at lunch but got waylaid. Stepped out the door into the pooring rain and went on the flatest run home (as feeling tired) could think of. It was also the most boring. Went out to Eckie road roundabout then back into town and round the ring road home.
Legs felt incredibly ordinary and was pleased when it was all over.

Running 50:00 [2] 6.5 mi (7:42 / mi)
Run to work in the am and then an extended run home from pilates. Slight pain in my right knee, not sure what it is - hopefully just a niggle from all the hill running over the weekend.
S+C 55:00 [1]
Pilates - more blokes than ever. Still enjoying this - the novelty of "pulling in my stomach" and "focusing on my breathing" still not warn off.
