Day 40 - Friday 10th Feb - I'm Back!!!!

Mileage 4; Time - who gives a f***; Conditions - Pain free; Weekly mileage - 4

That's right baby, the boy is back. Not quite so much with a vengeance, more with a smirk.

Completed 4 steady miles on the treadmill in the gym tonight. Concentrated on form, stood tall, tried to pick knees up and felt pretty dame good. No pain in the injury and touch wood or boner i'll stay injury free for the next 9 weeks. Get in!

3 weeks tomorrow since i last ran. In that time hell has almost frozen over, well the serpentine anyway. An Italian Ship has capsized, The Captain ran away, very much like the England Manager, Harry Redknapp got away with tax evasion, even though everyone knows he loves more bungs than a shot putter. The country has shit down in a frozen mess and Jordan has been through more guys than i have bandages.

Still never mind, as Elton John once sang, 'I'm still standing', though to be fair he also sang, 'like a candle in the wind', though that i usually reserve for Bikram Yoga,

The boy is back on the training trail. I feel reborn. With purpose again. Foggy head no more. My next 9 weeks are simple. Train smart and go hard or go home.

Slight concern with the new trainers and inserts. He built up the orthodontics super high on instep and makes top of left foot hurt. Maybe that i'm not used to it but i will have to watch out, as it's common to get another injury to compensate for the last - but i'm just pleased to be back. Though to be fair - i could have smiled and not looked so miserable - and looked a right prick in the gym taking a pic of worself.


Thats me Happy!


So onwards and upwards soldiers. Going outdoors early doors to knock out a 4-6 miler and it will be a pleasure to freeze my conkers off just to be back on the marathon trail

Have a tidy weekend campers
