Sunday 29th January (8miles)
Finch Coasters x-country. 8th which has pretty much sown up the bronze in the club championship. The pace was vicious at the start but felt comfortable from about a mile out. I am not saying I would have finished futher up the field if id not had a bad leg (but, well I would have been at least 5th). Im going to take a full week of now as ive got no races till early march. I may also be blogless as i'm moving and don't have a computer (yet). Ill see you all soon, happy running.

Tuesday 24th January (9miles)
1 hour along the river, very easy, leg is much better will be running normally by tommorow I think.
Sunday 22nd January (5.5 miles) 41 Miles
Loop easy, tired legs need a day of tommorow.
Saturday 21st January (17 miles)
1:56 (ish) over a very hilly route. Calf is 100%, but right groin is sore. Good run worked out to about 6:58 min miles.

Friday 20th January
I've rested to make sure I can complete tommorows 16-20 without a hitch (porridge for breki). Calf is much better no obvious pain when going up on to my toes and no loss of strength either. 9+ hours of sleep helps tho'.
