Putting in some distance...


Getting up early tomorrow with Sam to see if we can do 1/3 of a Marathon! It's difficult to train together as we have Will, who moans after 1 mile, and Iain who moans after getting in the buggy!! So we're getting a sitter once in a while to watch over them while we go out to torture our sneakers!!.... must go put the Gatorade in the fridge!...

You don't make that poor kid run with you, do you!?!

Thanks for that D - He never does more than 2 laps (the circuit we use is 1.22 miles)... we are not quite running yet anyway!

We did manage 9 laps today though in 3 hours dead (not us, the time!) 3.66 mph is not a bad average, but I think by next year we should be a fair bit faster :) Still I'm very happy that we managed 11 miles without too much difficulty... makes the goal look more achievable ...

My little man is showing... :O

Get your mind out of the gutter!! As you can see, there's a little Nike+ version of me hanging around on this webpage now... we did 10.52 miles today and I somehow managed to lose the info whilst registering to the site.... but from now on every time we run, mini-me should be animating it :) Obviously it won't take into account all the treadmill work we do during the week (not figured out how it measures yet!) so it'll only be good for our weekend runs and the Marathon !!

Is this thing on?

So.... accidentally clicked a link on fb that brought me to this old blog - kind of appropriate as we just signed up for a half marathon.... !! With all of our injuries it's going to be a tough time, but exercise is good for you apparently.

Challenge complete...

...as you can see under my 'little man' we've completed our goal for the month - next month's goal is 50 miles on the road (that doesn't include gym work - little man can't see me on the treadmill :( ). This Sunday we'll be trying for 18 miles which should burn off all the Turkey calories!! Happy Thanksgiving :)
