Silverstone - 4

19 days to go!

So on Sunday, our training run was set for 7 miles! Man that's a long way! Mark Carp signed up...(or was pestered into signing up) only a week ago.
We set out on the run and all felt good, settled into a nice pace and I survived it. Stopped a couple times but not as many as before.

Got home, climbed in the shower and vomited for 2 minutes! Right there in the shower - all over my feet! Pretty gross! Not sure if that's a bad sign after 7 miles - makes me wonder what will happen after 13!

On Wednesday or Thursday we're doing a gentle 5 miles then stretching for 10 miles next Sunday.

These guys (Nige, Mark D and Mark C) are machines! Mark C kept me going, and their support has been invaluable! Even though it hurts badly, I'm quietly confident that we can actually do it!
