No mad dog, more lambs and less hills

The weather was not as bad as the forecast, although it was a rainy start to the run it soon cleared up and without the cold wind in the more the exposed areas it would have been good running weather.

I tried a new local route and despite a couple of overly long roads which looked like they were going on for miles it was a very pretty route. 15.5 miles done today, a mile and a half longer than I intended but I felt good half way so thought I'd carry on, of course by mile 10 I was regretting this decision but my legs are getting used to running whilst tired and lead like which can only be a good thing! It's the big 18 next week, eekkkk!! Going to try and add in an extra easy run this week on Wednesday to up my mileage.

The really good news is that my sniffles that started on Friday appear to have gone away, fingers crossed.
