This week's long run... Whilst I felt (and I know look) exhausted after a ridiculous week - I felt extremely comfortable and loved finishing with @
parkrun(22:29).
I really hope as I up the miles that I can maintain pace, time will tell 🤩

Working away up North this week. Haven't been able to run outside, with where the hotel is. So two decent runs on the treadmill and three good swims the past two days.
I forget just how good swimming is after a run 🤩

8miles done tonight, legs felt a little tender, might need to ease off the pace a little for Sundays longer run.

Fab chest and arms day at the gym with my best mate. So so good to give my legs a rest today! 😁

Normally I'm Mr positive, but tonight's run felt rubbish. Tired legs, head being mean and just mehhh.
Got it done though.

With the ground thawing nicely and it being in positive numbers 1°C I pushed a little harder tonight. 😊

Might not have been the safest day to do a half marathon.Speed was not on the cards,staying upright was; icy at -4°C.
The ice formations on trees, the deer running through the forest, the sun shimmering on the river - breathtaking!

Absolutely buzzing! Today we ran the Breckland 10K for TAC members... I managed to complete the course in 42:51, which is a new personal best, almost a minute off of my previous 10K
PB. 😁😁😁 #TeamTAC

Had a fab early morning swim, 40 minutes in the pool, followed by a lovely breakfast. Going to try a lunch time run, though it's pretty warm 🤩

Accountability is important for me - so here it is! Exercising daily with a 50/50 split between running and the gym.
More work needed to tone at the gym, however very pleased with the progress. It takes time and that's okay.

A great morning #volunteering & #Running Really pleased with my time, given my legs feel like concrete 😂
Followed by some fun trying to sort the results after a slight token issue today.

After a long day sitting, a run along the beach and prom watching the sun set was absolutely awesome 🤩

0645 on a Saturday, what was I doing? Sleeping?...No.
Clearing ice making it possible for our #parkrun event to go ahead here in #Thetford. Very cold and wet, but great to see so many out regardless.
