Re: Bob's Bits.
It felt a lot fresher on Sunday morning as I embarked on my second eleven miler this year and as a result managed to cleave over three minutes off last weeks time. Before you start with the back patting and congratulations I must point out that I did take it very cautiously last week so it was a soft target.
I decided to jog down to the surgery yesterday, it's just a about a mile and a half round trip, but I found myself doing a speed session and I liked it....So I might just try one mile faster sessions on my days off and see what happens...
My legs did feel tired on this mornings six, but it turned out to be faster than I expected, no records were broken or anything but well satisfied with the result.
Just Thursday's Eight miler to do and then it's off to Guernsey on Friday. For a small island there are plenty of hills and it's difficult to do a run without having to scale at least one of them. It'll be a nice change for Mrs Fox after losing her Dad in June, she hasn't stopped working since he passed away, sorting out his stuff and cleaning his flat, woe betide anyone who got in her way, but I think it's her way of coping.
Just a few jobs to do now before we go so I'll catch up with the forum later......
