Only crazy when it rains

Raining this morning,hmm, just the five miles then. Cackles of insane laughter...

Yep, joined the ranks of the insane this morning when set off in rain and did a solid five miles in a good time too - 43:58 meaning 8:46 miles. Ace. In my head now am training for this half-marathon in September. Going to get a proper training plan together but the ad-hoc one is - minimum five milers every day and a big un on the non-golfing weekend day. Aiming for a ten miler this weekend.

Current mood: insanely pleased.

This week's running record - smidge short of 20 miles and it's only Tuesday!!!

Been out on FCR1 again tonight and put another quick ten miles in. Most enjoyable. However need to find a new route as it's getting a bit samey.

Been looking at Triathlons today. Our gym has been running this Triathlon thing where you do so much rowing (instead of the swimming), so much running and so much cycling so it got me looking at the real thing - there's a page on Wikipedia here. Getting ideas way above my station now!

You want to be having a look at Duathlon. I'm certain there are a couple held around the Derby area. Run/Bike/Run.

Just dropping by to say hello.

Often wondered why people run in all weathers.
Now I know.

Many thanks for the suggestion, I'd not heard of Duathlons before. Will check them out.
