T(G) minus 2 months and counting!
Yes, Toughguy is only 2 months away now, and unlike last year I’ve started early as you may have noted on my previous blog entry.
The month of November has been interesting – I’m actually finding training harder as my body and mind know what to expect, so as I run I’m visualising the course from memory.
I’ve continued with Body Attack, plus I ensure that each week I complete at least a 4 mile run, this weekend I ran inside on the treadmill for the first time in about 3 years and completed 5.6 miles and then went on the stepper to simulate hill-running (there are 12 of them in a row on the course), plus I went out with a fellow Toughguy on Sunday for a x-country run of 7.25 miles across the Wiltshire/Berkshire border – so my legs now feel like jelly!
So onto December, and as any athlete knows, training will be disturbed by the Christmas festivities, so I’m having to re-arrange my training a little, but Santa has come early in the form of a new pair of x-trainers (wore through the last pair) and some new training vests to keep me going (and warm) over the winter months.
I’ll update my progress in a few week!
