Week 15 day 3-7 and good news

Tough last few weeks, now recovered.. and a nice end to the week. 2 stone officially lost since November, lots of running, lots of hard effort but great result.


Thu Day 3 
Usual game of 5 a side football at lunchtime, reasonably okay. After previous day's hard run (see below), not 100% but not awful.
Evening, recovery run with Mrs FRC, 8.5m, comfortable easy pace. After feeling a bit sore in the legs, they actually now feel pretty good. Things seem to be recovering. A few aches but nothing major.

Sat Day 5
Rest day Friday... arranged Saturday to meet Judderman off rw forums to run the Wirral side of the marathon route. Garmin running watch playing up a little, so not 100% after the wet run Wednesday.. but usable.
Anyway, great meeting up, ended up doing 17 miles, 1 on way to meet, 13m together and then another 2.5miles  on way back to the gym. Nice breakfast & recovery afterwards in West Kirby at Cha Bar. Legs still feeling good.

Sun Day 6
A lie in.. rested legs so no heavy running this day. Even had the luxury of 9 hours in bed. Very slow jog to gym, then hard 1hr boxing circuit and jog back (3 miles total). Ended week with the nice news at the top, 2 stone lost, so in great shape for the marathon.
