Building on the foundation

Today I felt, for the first time since IM last year, that I was building on a solid base of fitness.  The hard work has started to pay off.  Following yesterdays 63 mile bike I ran 13 miles today in my best time ever; 1hr 36 min 42 sec and this is on a hilly course.  There are much faster runners around by I am concentrating on what I can do as there is little point in competing against real athletes or ones that are 15 - 20 years younger.  Today the hills seemed smaller so I will continue in my journey which is mapped out before me and strive to achieve my goals.
