The heat is on. 80 days to go, over 500 miles to complete. So it was 2 runs, one before breakfast and another at lunchtime. 6miles each.
The first was the loop down the Nickey Line and home via West Common. Uneventful, no abuse, no dogs or dog owners getting stroppy. Just an easy, steady 6 miles at 9min pace.
At lunchtime it was the Wheathampsted loop. The legs felt fine and I was inspired by the thought of reaching £800 of donations. I'm in the dead zone, the enthusiasm of the early runs has gone. So the donations have spurred me on and as I approach 500 I know I will run 500 more!
With a 10-14 day taper into the run and a rest day every week, I'm looking at 10miles a day to complete the challenge. Easy peasy.
