Meeting my MdS mates

I am determined to "catch up" although the theory goes you never do. But at 6am I climbed on my turbo trainer and put in a steady 30 minutes. When I got off I had to lie down as I felt dizzy and sick but my heart rate recovered quickly so that was a good sign. This evening I went to a talk on the MdS in Edinburgh and met three of my tent mates who will be on the journey with me. It's interesting seeing the different backgrounds and approaches to training for the event. We've organised to meet up for some runs and I think it was important to establish these relationships before going to Morocco. The talk was interesting with lots of useful tips. The speaker was very laid back and it just got me one step closer to the desert. So when I'm up tomorrow for my 45 minute turbo session I'll be more focused and hopefully will feel better at the end than I did today.
