I dragged myself out of bed, into my trainers and out the door… actually, I also put shorts and T-shirt on, I didn’t want to get arrested! I hate running first thing in the morning BB (Before Breakfast). I always feel like I have no energy, especially as after last nights session I only had a salad. Still three miles steady was the plan, and that’s what I’ve done. Still on track for my 100 mile week… only 88 miles to go!

The trainers that my feet nestled nicely into this morning were my new Trabucos. I realise that I need to have run in them at least a couple of times before I attempt to run 75 miles in them this weekend, so this morning, and tomorrow morning, that’s the plan. Run on the woodland path and get used to the new shoes. I have to say though that they felt great this morning. They felt fine on the roads and were superb on the trail. They feel like a road shoe but clearly give that bit extra needed for rougher terrain. A great purchase I think… ask me again on Sunday though!

Not much in terms of wildlife on the path this morning. I saw a hare the size of a small dog, but other than that, nothing. I didn’t see the deer, although this is Linwood, they’ve probably been shot and eaten by now!
