I’m not doing very well at keeping up with blogging at the moment, I blame Liz Jones who has banned me from taking my laptop to bed in the hope that I will settle in to a better sleep pattern!
Last week I felt I crossed more things out on my training plan than I actually managed to tick off as done!
In brief I ran on, Tuesday 5miles, Thursday 4 miles, Saturday 5 miles, and on Sunday I ran a long slow 18.5miles to complete my Febulous runs!
The only other thing I did last week was my longest winterswim a 1500meter swim on Saturday afternoon!
I spent the week arguing with myself, one day telling myself I was being sensible resting when I was tired, the next telling myself off for just being lazy!!
But never mind running, this blog is dedicated to my wonderful and funny daughter Adele who will also be doing her longest winterswim this week. 1500meters - 60 lengths of a standard pool
Adele has done fantastic, having not swum regularly for the last 5 years she has built up her distance and improved her technique. Adele loves swimming under the water and can swim over half the length of the pool before coming up for air. In the last few months we have had lots of fun together, Adele has even patiently tried to teach me how to do the front crawl and dive under the water but these are skills that I am still somewhat lacking in!
