Boo!

0617 and I was out of the pit and in to my kit for today's 3 miles. Not only was it dark and cold, but the big man decided to let it rain a little this morning too - Oh good!!

My legs felt like lead today for some reason and I did struggle to get going, even though my breathing was pretty much under control from the start...that was until I had the fright of my life about a mile and a half in to it. Part of the run is alongside a fairly busy road so it's quite noisy, even at that time of the morning. There I was, in my own little world, dragging my fat backside round the route when all of a sudden this shadow appears to the left of me...then a body appears to right of me...I nearly ended up in the tree it made me jump so much!! It was the paperboy on his bike doing his round...the little shite!! I didn't hear him coming...a new set of shorts were nearly required.

Anyway, the run was done without any more drama so next is my 7 miler on Saturday before I strut my funky stuff on the dance floor at the wedding!!
