a tiring day ...

It started well with an early morning run - I decided to abandon my FLM up the road and back route - it's too mindblowingly boring - the same undulations every time aaaagh.


so turn the other direction and down to the river - through the park and back along the other side



of course DOWN to the river means it is seriously UP coming back


but the route is 4 miles with the potential for a flattish 2 mile loop in the park

so I shall be back for that later in the week


as for today it went like this :

session	W5	R50	W5	Run
distance	0.34	3.63	0.31	4.28
pace	14:49	13:45	16:15	14:01
AHR	116	142	135	143

back home, stretch and shower then its off to Alton Towers with the two teenbeanzes and a couple of Swedish scouts who are staying for a few days

I had not been before and did not know what to expect

fond thoughts of wandering through the picturesque gardens and sipping cups of tea whilst the lads tried out the rides were dashed

as they did not know what to expect either, I spent a lot of time waiting for them to go on rides and then walking across the site to the next ride

all very tiring

back home, cook a meal and then off for a walk in the park - down to the river along this morning's route, but just a couple of miles this time


legs are beginning to request some respite!

time for upper body at the gym tomorrow I think
