Training catchup
Aug. 21st, 2009 07:58 amSo my last entry hoped "Friday would go better" but in fact by Friday evening I was exhausted and on Saturday I was clearly getting ill, and I remained so for several days.
We are now in France, and I have got better and have actually gone out training twice:
2.4 miles in 35:40 (14.9 min/mile) - HURRAH I broke 15 min/mile
4 miles in 61:42 (15.4 min/mile) oh bother
The training plan calls for a 10 mile walk on Sunday followed by a relatively light programme of short walks between then and the race. I have missed two 8 mile walks by being ill, so I really doubt I'll hit the timing requirement at this point, but I should be able to do the distance.
