Back on track

I promised myself a good run tonight of about 10 or so miles and left work to be met with a cold blast of wind that made me zip up my jacket and hunch my shoulders as I shuffled to the station.

The club was doing a Christmas Holly Run that was quite a clever way of doing faartlek training with a festive theme but my legs were just getting over the recent double ultra and the last they needed was a short, sharp run.

So a quick phone call to George who was of similar opinion and I was around his house, suited and booted ready for our run. The first thing that came apparent as we stepped out was the temperature which had now dropped to -1 degrees centigrade and the first frost of the winter were settling onto car roof tops.

So a great 10 mile (ish) run at a good, consistent and easy pace lay ahead and completed. Plans discussed and ideas of new challenges seeded in my mind for 2010!
