Not such a good week for training this week -- busy working on the Dig Debate programme at the Playfair Library as part of the 10th Anniversary of Devolution. Managed the club on Monday and a couple of gym sessions. Hopefully I'll get a run tomorrow night -- then back on track with the Saturday long run. The library is part of Edinburgh University. It is a stunning room and downstairs in a case are Eric Liddell's three Olympic medals -- strange running co-incidence.
Good week this week. The first week of my marathon training programme, ran 5 days -- Men's 10k Sunday; six miles and a weights and abs session in the gym on Tuesday; Club hill Session Wednesday; easy five mile recovery run Thursday and a good 10 miles on Saturday, followed by another session in the gym -- total mileage around 35 miles -- happy with that. Also happy for my pal Louise who won the President's Cup handicap race last week -- a great and much deserved achievement. The photo is a tribute to her and all the Bellas who took part. Don't know who the men's winner was -- but well done to him too !!!
