Run 18

Well today was a bit bad. I did not get up in the morning and run. I was feeling very tired and I think the intervals and then the run in the morning was pushing it. I was exhausted. Soft! So today I slept in and after work I went for a run with Al, my flatmate.

I was feeling a little tired still after a day at work, and the body felt a bit tired. But then when I was finishing up the 10ks, I was going pretty good. I kept up a good speed still and was cruising along nicely. So that reassured me a bit for the 21k half marathon I am running on Saturday.

It was a wet day today which was actually quite nice. It was a nice temperature and the rain was not hard or anything but it just made you wet. Running in the run is actually nice, you know you are sweating so going to be wet anyway, so actually having refreshing rain on your face cooling you down is a nice thing. Especially when it is kind of muggy. So all round good run today.

Stats:

start: 5.35pm

distance: 10.12 km

time: 48'42"

Av Speed: 12.47 kph

So as you see, a good average speed to be running. Now I just need to keep it up over a longer period and I am good!

Also news today is I purchased a new running shirt and 2 pairs of running socks. So I am going to be running good soon. The new shirt in fast red will be used in the half marathon on Saturday as well as a new pair of socks, maybe. I will test some tomorrow. Otherwise I might use the old tried and true pair of socks which have been good. Will need to put up some more photos as well, because this is probably the most boring blog on the internet!

Cheers
