86 days

Oh dear people! It has been a while...for just about everything. Our family have been hit by bugs united for the last few weeks and so the blogging and the training has been suffering. I had a particularly vile tummy bug which mean I was out of the running and training loop for over a week. However this last week has been great. I have run every other day getting slightly longer each time to help build myself back up. Two weeks ago at training with Jon I even managed to lift a 16K bell weight which I know will make you laugh at how small that is but for me it was equivalent to lifting a house! I have a new running buddy for Wednesdays to make sure I go out midweek, the great thing about this running lark is that I am making new friends too. I am now managing almost three miles continuously running which is brilliant but still only half the distance I need to run in May so I have plenty of work to do. The 86 days in the title refers to the amount of days left before race day so I am going to need to concentrate a whole lot harder and avoid those germs!!
