I had planned a longer run this morning with Gareth who is doing Ironman Lanzarote with me. Unlike the rest of the UK which was bathing in sunshine, it was chucking it down. Within 50 yards of the start our feet were soaked as the water flowed off the fields and across the roads. We ended up running 11.3 miles but I didn't know how far we were going as I wasn't familiar with the route. It's hard keeping a pace going when you don't know where the finish line is and in future I will run with nutrition to keep fueling my body which is essential.
It was a good work out and I need more of these as I have a 16 mile race at the end of the month. Now to refuel and start the recover process before getting on with some household chores - normal life returns.
