I'm pleased, I went out for a 5k this morning.
Mum and Dad have been down this weekend so I've had a few drinks in the evening and I haven't been as good food wise as I could have which has resulted in slight hangovers both mornings, however I've had my best 25 minute training time and best 5k time over the last two days 5k now down to 32.5 thats 5 minutes faster then 2 weeks ago with plenty of training time left before my charity runs, so lots of time to improve!

Have you conquered that hill yet?
I have a pair of Nike lunarglides with a footpod bit in them. Very happy indeed with my Garmin though so I haven't considered buying one. I think theyre a bit of a gimic anyway and stop you changing trainer brands. Like MB says you're better off just getting an Ap for running. Free and interchangeable between trainers.

Only prob is that I only work in miles and generally my shortest runs are 5 miles. Ahhhh you'll be fine hahaha
Seriously though, if you and/or Matt want to test your endurance there is a pancake flat old railway track you can run up a few miles from here. See how far you get on the flat!

Having never run more than 7-8 miles before I've just resolved to try and run a half marathon quicker than the world record marathon holder, which is not much longer than 2 hours. I've done 10k in 53 minutes before so as long as I can keep it up it should be easy(ish). It's just the distance - 7 miles had me on the floor!

You guys are getting fast. I'd better step up my game a bit
It's the work 5K race next week. Nearly missed it again. I was going to have a shot at winning it this year but I've not been practicing that distance and my back is really holding me up at the moment. I don't think it's going to happen this year, especially as the current hot shot is apparently running it in about 17-18 minutes, which is a fair bit faster than I'm going.
