So, there are some perks to running a running blog

One of them is that occasionally people get in touch and ask me to try stuff. So far, I’ve had things like nutritional stuff sent from Maximuscle and some smellies from the people at Dove… but this week, the big boys came knocking.

Adidas are launching a new running community/hub at www.testadidas.co.uk – you need a special access code to get onboard at this stage that I was supplied by one of the PRs for Adidas and I signed up.

I had to answer loads of questions about running habits and the like but they also took all my sizes, so it will be interesting if I get some new kit to try out.

Today’s run was a perfectly pleasant one around the backstreets around Eric, the father-in-law’s house in Kirk Deighton outside of Wetherby. I wish I could have gone out for a bit longer but we had a 9.15 appointment to have suits fitted for Laura’s sister’s wedding in two week’s time.

I’d tried to factor in for this and was up at 6am and ready to go but then couldn’t get out of the house, which was locked and I couldn’t find the front door key. Ordinarily, I would have gone out of the window but my trainers were being held captive in the porch, which also required a key, so I had to hold off until someone was up who could give me a key.
