Getting over the three mile barrier.
I did manage to get out for a run one night in the week, Wednesday actually but only managed a couple of miles and was absolutely shattered.
We three who are running the 10K castle to castle run, in less than 60 days, all agreed to go for a run Saturday morning as the rest of the week evening running was just not possible. Up I get Saturday morning and one of my fellow runners is going to the hair dressers and one has a head ache so "billy no mates" goes out for a run on her own. I decided that i have to crack this 2 to 3 mile problem so I went for it and managed 5 miles yippee. I was well pleased with myself. There were a couple of hills but nothing major I wanted to concentrate on distance and not worry about hill work and I managed it.
The first three quarters of the run were relatively uneventful with the usual horses, cows, geese and ducks but just as I was about to head off the canal and make my way back home I came across two fire engines in a field near a canal bridge, it turns out there had been a canal boat fire so that's why there was nothing much moving on the canal. There was no smoke so I guess it was out, I hope everyone was ok.
