Went for my morning run today and ended up just keeping going... ended up thinking i'll do an extra mile after the 10k, felt ok, just set my sights on the half and ran through.

I just kept an even pace, wasn't overly tired, just had to fight a mental battle whether to call it quits after an hour and go home and get settled in for the World Cup New Zealand v Italy game and eat my cals back... Glad I didn't right enough, ran it in 1h 37 dead which i'm pretty happy with. Wondering if i'll be stiff and sore tomorrow tho :ohwell:

Well, I now get to eat it all back. Woop woop! Salmon omelettes and steaks await. Yum... :tongue:

Hope you are all having a splendid weekend!

Kenny
