It has had quite an eventful running week…I feel the urge to blog about it!
Firstly, Flair and I ran 10 miles on Tuesday evening!! (Yes that’s right only 3 off a half marathon!!) We are feeling very proud of ourselves; however we are still feeling the pain.
On which note I should mention that the old saying "no pain no gain" really has been my mantra these past 2 weeks. Unfortunately I am suffering with ‘runner’s knee’ (aka illiotibial band syndrome) which means that I have to rest for longer between runs and do some weird and wonderful stretches! I went to see a nice Physio last night and despite receiving the most painful massage I have ever had I’m feeling positive and hope my training will continue to progress well!
In other news I hear my fellow #TeamFTC members are getting on well with their training and fitting it around rather demanding theatre tours - Go Team!
Oh and highlight of my training so far has to be Tuesday night… 5 miles into our run Flair and I are running and chatting away along Albert Embankment… as we run past what looked like your average guy realise that actually he is nonchalantly carrying a rather large snakes coiled around his arms! I have to say that the fleeting, unexpected sight of this snake as we ran past really got us moving …and screaming!!
Anyway, only 3 weeks to go...which means you still have time to sponsor us!!... http://www.charitygiving.co.uk/run4futures
