Local holiday

I woke at 8am and only because for some stupid reason I'd set an alarm. But this was a major sleep in for me. The weather forecast for today was windy leading to rain and then heavy rain and gale force winds. So I decided it was best to get up and finish my training early. I knew my legs had done some heavy mileage the day before, 25.5 miles, but they were in good shape. My yoga session had them feeling even better before I went out for a short and reasonably fast 3.26 miles. When you run long distance your average pace slows so it's important to mix it up with shorter faster runs. The wind was strong and I could feel it hold me back but it was the threatening rain that concerned me. Fortunately I got in before it started but I felt fantastic. Being on holiday is allowing me to rest so I'll be fit for the weeks work and training ahead. Batten down the hatches as the weather is building into a storm tonight!
