Went for a run this morning, and I decided to try and make Ugali for the first time. I think I did okay, though it could have been smoother.

Bailed on #parkrun this morning, Still taking it easy after the Big Half last weekend. Now I have the photos I can show you my finish photo: The pictures of me as I set off to walk home don't show me having as much fun

The Big Half in 3:09:21. What made me think I could run a half marathon with 10 weeks training? I thought I would give it large but I was just trying to get through each Km by the end. #running #thebigholf

I've got The Big Half this weekend. And in a fit of optimism I've signed up for a 55 Km urban ultra next June. www.beyondtrails.co.uk/beyond...
I may be in need of thoughts and prayers, or maybe an intervention.

Easy run at Catford #parkrun. Looks like my scan failed but never mind. It wasn't a fast time. Ran home as a cool down and that's my running done for this month. Almost 120km. Wouldn't have thought it possible 2 months ago.

This is what a long slow run looks like for an older runner trying to get back into it.
Week 3/10 of my prep for The Big Half is done.

A little steady exercise and watching what I eat has made a big difference to my weight. I don't look any different, but I certainly feel better.

I volunteered at Hilly Fields #parkrun this morning. Didn't want to get wet shoes/sockes so I took my Xero Aqua Clouds out. Did a gentle jog there and back. 3km in total. Uphill out and downhill back.
Surprisingly easy to run in, and really meke you work on your form.

Managed the curly wurly at Thames Path #Parkrun. Really hot, but a nice course, well organised and friendly and supportive runners.
Almost negative splits, but it was hot and I faded at the end.

First longs slow run this morning. Heart rate high but breathing was normal. Pictures from the turnaround point. Slow, but it was supposed to be. #running #ukrunchat

Charldon #parkrun this morning. Managed a PB of 39:00, even with a loo break after lap 1. The cooler weather helped. As did the first week of training runs. I have an 8k long slow run tomorrow and that is week 1/10 done.

Following my scheduled "Easy" run today. 6km which I did along the nice flat Thames Path.
I have such lovely places to run nearby. It's a shame I stopped for so long.
Less than 10 weeks to The Big Half. I may not finish it fast, but if I stay on track I'll finish it strong.
