FRIDAY 20TH APRIL

Been injured since easter monday, lifting a plant pot at my mums house. On loads of pills and slowly getting better the Highland Fling race is next saturday and i am struggling to make it for then.

Hope to see some friends at the AGM tonight.

My plans for todays run fell apart due to something called mothers day. Was told it was ok to go out in the morning but i knew this was a gesture so decided to spend the day with the family and did a 3 hour walk with the  family. So my run was delayed till 4pm, so off i went to milngavie for a 14 mile run in Gods Country and i must admit i have realy enjoyed my running this weekend. So a great start to my weeks training and 14 miles in the bag.

The ploblem with trying to do long runs at the weekend is having a family. So this weekend my wife is away to wishaw for her hair cut, so i will need to wait till she returns home and then hopefully start my run about 3pm or if later i might need a head torch. Hoping to get home about 8pm.
