Day 242 – Warm Weather

Running today was a pleasure, the air was warm and the actual run itself seemed easy and relaxed. A route out to Cassiobury bridge and back along the canal was the order of the day, the pace was about right and it was basically good fun. I think both me and Joe enjoyed the run, [...]

Day 241 – Back To The Woods

I went for an off road run today as I haven’t been through the woods for a while. I have to say I was surprised as to how muddy it was in the woods, and I was glad I had gone for the full off-road shoe as I think otherwise I might have struggled for [...]

Day 240 – Double Hills

For this morning I decided that I would run up the hill a couple of times as it makes a reasonable loop and you always get more out of running up a hill than the flat. The first time round the loop was ok, I felt pretty relaxed and he hill didn’t seem to o [...]

Day 239 – Haven’t Had That For A While

Well I was really tired before I started tonight and to be honest I really wasn’t super motivated to go out, but tiredness and not fancying it are not reasons to stop. So, off I went and decided I would give the new Aciscs a road run to see how they faired, I know they [...]

Day 238 – I Don’t Remember

I think I must have done todays run in a complete daze as I can’t remember anything about it. I remember starting in the warm sunshine, wondering whether my long sleeve Howies merino wool top was going to be too warm. Form there I seemed to arrive at Casiobury Park bridge. Here I stopped had [...]

Day 237 – Any Other Business?

There really isn’t a whole lot to say about todays run, it was done at lunchtime in the sunshine. The air temperature wasn’t that high and again I was glad of a jacket, I had the Ascis Torana’s on again and without giving too much away of my forthcoming review, lets just say they are [...]

Day 236 – Timing Is The Key

Well on a day like today when the weather goes from pouring down to stopping in a matter of minutes it was always going to take a bit of luck to avoid getting soaked. The original plan was to go out at lunchtime, but events transpired against that, and it was lucky they did as [...]

Day 235 – Speed From Somewhere

Not sure exactly what happened today but I found some speed from somewhere. Now this speed may have been rain induced but it was a welcome change especially as recently I haven’t been able to generate any. The route today was simply down to the Cassiobury Bridge and back along the canal, this route is [...]

Day 234 – New Shoes

A bright sunny morning today and this always makes the motivation to run seem easier, and when you add this to a new pair of shoes I was keen to go. The new shoes, a pair of Asics Torana, were sent to me by SportsDirect.com to test, I will be writing a review of these, [...]

Day 233 – I Love The Sun

On days like these I remember why I love trill running. The sun was out, the sky was blue and I decided I would do a few extra miles. Off I went towards the woods, yes they are still muddy, but who cares I was able to nip round the edge of most of the [...]
