That's cos the other runners in Cardiff are trying to escape from the police at the time ;)

Ed - You are quite clearly a very hardcore runner, not like me I would like a rest from my schedule, but know that if i have one day out of the schedule that would be it for me.

I am struggling at the moment with motivation, but somehow find the resolve to drag my sorry ar5e out.

How long you got to go? What mileage were you doing a week before you started tapering?

Race is on Sundat 28 Oct but I travel out on Thurs 25. Before taper - not that much really as I find it hard to get the time for midweek runs. I spose about 35ish, sometimes up to 40.

Did my 17 miler yesterday - 2:41 and I wasn't attempting to push myself either as it was supposed to be a slow run. Rather than running slow I ran comfortable as I wasn't really up for it. My new shoes are great....

I haven't really run far enough to test my new shoes yet (only done a 3 miler but they were comfy). My next target is to be able to do 3 miles without walking, gonna see how I get on with walking for a bit every mile first though I think.

I've been really bad at bothering/remembering to warm up/down before/after running. Doesn't seem to be a problem with the v short distances I'm doing at the mo but I'm guessing that when I start running a bit further it'll be more important.

Nah I only do a half-arsed attempt at stretching.
