Thursday, Week 9 of 15

Run: "9 Miles, steady"
Time Taken: 68 mins
Total Mileage So Far: 276.5 miles

Tried a new evening route for the first time in ages. Ran up to the town I used to live in and back. It was raining again, so I've now doen the last 3 and a half runs without music. It's harder to ignore the odd pain and discomfort without the distraction, so I hope it clears up for Sunday morning.

Spent the first couple of miles worrying I was going to trip over something again, which is stupid as I've only fallen over twice in 3 years and 2,500 miles. No reaction or injuries as far as I could tell from the tumble.

Felt good; ran at just under marathon pace, but it was undulating so the effort was probably about right.

Got to fit in a recovery run, then out for my first 20 miler on Sunday morning.
