Finally...

Well, after 2 weeks of inactivity I finally dragged my arse out for a run. I went for a pre-breakfast jog around campus (5.48 km, 28:40). It felt good to be running again and I forget why it has taken such an effort to get back out.  I hope this is the start of me building up my mileage again, especially as I have entered the Surrey Hills Trail Challenge. I have entered A class, 30 km, so I will have my work cut out.  It will, however, be really good training for the SLMM.  My partner for that event has decided to join me so it will be a good opportunity for us to run together, especially as we missed our training weekend.

I also hope to get out a do a bit more orienteering over the next few weeks to hone my nav skills in preparation for the SLMM. And I am also going to try a few night runs as well as I am going to try and persuade a few friends to take on somewhat of a more challenging event.  We will see.  Watch this space...
