2140-300

My Asics GT-2140 shoes completed their 300th mile at the weekend, I guess I should retire them soon but I reckon there are a few more winter runs left in them yet. The proved they were still comfortable for 5.6miles on Saturday, my longed run of the year and longer than scheduled.  It may be time to start using my Mizuno Inspire 5 and especially by new New Balance MR749 trail shoes more often, especially the NB along the now muddy trails.  The evenings are getting lighter in I'll soon be able to go off-road during the week - excellent.

Just 28 days to go

The Bath Half is beginning to get scarily close.  Managed to make the long run a bit longer than planned, but still only 4.4miles.  The mid-week runs both got longer too, and next week is another step up.  Finally managing to run at a more consistent pace and not going off like too quick and pay for it later. 

Things do feel like they are progressing and than each runs is taking me closer to being able to complete  - just as long as we don't have another prolonged cold snap.
