Ignoring a cold

My voice these last few days!!
Very deep
Like the day after smoking 40 fags
Throat sore - have got through so many strepsils.
Good to have this now as 26 days to go!!! 

But did manage a 13.4km 54mins before work HB session on the roads so very pleased with that xx

Rest day

In 4 weeks it’ll be over. 
This adventure has currently taken over (on & off) approx 4 years of my life. It’s been wonderful. Just need to finish it now 🥰🎉

Exactly 4 weeks today

Loved the Exbury 10k
Soles of my feet are tender. Hopefully I’ll manage 42km!!

Felt very relaxed & easy. Didn’t push it at all, chatted the whole way. 

Two weeks of concerted effort then taper 
As long as I make the bike cut off I’ll be fine on the run as long as I take it very gently.
