1095miles – running blog

Today I wake and feel normal. I’m out of bed and it’s only 8.55am. Let’s get breakfast inside me, I attempt 2 pieces of toast today. Surprisingly my legs are not aching too much. After only 2o minutes I decide I’m exhausted and go back to bed, I fall asleep until 12.15 when yet again I’m [...]

Only had about 2 hours sleep last night, cant seem to settle in London, stayed in bed as Danielle left for the day. Managed to get a few more hours sleep until woken up by the phone ringing at 11.30am. My biggest challenge at the moment is not running 3 miles a day but getting [...]
