Days 117-131/365 - really sorry about the lack of updates, have been quite busy but know that is no excuse!

This I think will the biggest blog update yet! So much has happened over the period!
Lets start with a few runs:
Good little run with Buddy - He has developed a bug and we think maybe to stop running him for a while! Hopefully he gets better soon!

I have an arch enemy at Crossfit in Rodger Sangster and everytime there is a running element to the workout - we fight tooth and nail to the end! I won this time!

The intervals at crossfit were not enough to take me to my minimum distance so I knew I had to finish the distance at some point. Got in trouble with East Ren council about fly posting so had to go a run at night to take the posters down!

Running indoors with the garmin foot pod and have decided it is a massive waste of time! The calibration issues meant that for every 1 km recorded on the garmin - I was running 2km on the treadmill. Took a tantrum and then decided to do the running outside from now on.

So Charles is here! Was great to run with him and see all his bruises! It really looks sore and not a good idea to run too fast on it. Really good to meet up with him again after seeing him only when we chatted about the challenge at the jog Scotland course. I am so proud that he is keeping up the hard work!!!

Run out with a client Claire who is training for her first marathon in Edinburgh this year. She was extremely strong on the hills and then kept up the pace for the remainder of the 10km.
