Time to celebrate

It's been a great week in so many ways.  Two great swimming a sessions where I felt like progress was being made, a tough 45 mile bike ride and two fantastic runs, both of which took place on Sunday!  Lets start with the runs. After a night out on the "tiles", details in a minute, I ran 11 miles along a route I drive 5 days a week, to pick up my car from Saturday night.
Running 11 miles isn't an issue but when you are running from point A to point B going through towns you know, it felt different and travelling it in a car you give no thought to the hills.  But I had to keep reminding myself, it's just 11 miles ignore the fact it's point A to B.
Having recovered from that, my daughter wanted to go out running! It was only 3k but she wanted a PB so I pulled on my shoes, again, and off we went. She is such a natural runner  & I can see I am going to have to do some speed work to keep up with her - in time.
But on Saturday night my triathlon club celebrated all the medals earned during the year by the athletes.  Curry, beer and wine was had with lots of laughter.  There was a whole range of achievements which represented milestones to those involved - brilliant.  It was a night off and we all enjoyed it but back to training the next day because we've plans for 2014. It's been a good week and tomorrow is a rest day, apart from going back to work. I hope you all have a great week.
