Mock(tail) (of) The Week

The training runs for Bournemouth Marathon are getting longer and more challenging. Today I needed to complete 17 miles and I did so with a bit of company for the first 8; Jacqueline from NRC Stratford joined me.

Considering how painful my 16 mile run was last week, it was with no small amount of trepidation that I set off from Westfield this morning.

However I needn't have worried as in general the run was comfortable and I finished strong with negative splits over the last 2 miles.

I rewarded myself with eggs benedict and this mocktail from Balans at Stratford Westfield.

Bring on the 18 miler next week.
