This evening I met Nic after work again to do another trial run for Sundays Fun Run. We altered the route slightly to what we ran on Tuesday as we both thought we had parts of it wrong.
Nic ran off ahead of me in the attempt to lap me. The track we used today was quite odd as part of it was a small dirt/grass path right next along the edge of the city golf course. I am not 100% convinced that this was the path we were supposed to be on as prams and wheelchairs are included in the fun run and I don't see how this path would be suitable for them.
I did do some running but I really need to put some music on my new phone so that I can have some motivation when I am on my own. It is funny, you don't realise how motivating a person is until you don't have them there next to you making you run that bit sooner or that bit further. I did slow up a lot towards the end as I was looking for Nic on the opposite side of the river. I knew he had done one lap and was expecting to see him on the other side, so it ended up taking 40mins to do the 4km. Nic ended up doing 1.5 laps rather than 2 laps. One thing I noticed today on my run is the number of women that wear little or no breast support whilst they are running. Seriously ladies a good bra is all part of good breast maintenance. I don't know how they can do it, it would be painful. Stupid ladies will end up with nanna boobs.
I do have a sore leg (calf to be precise) now though and it was hurting after Tuesday. The muscle is quite tight but I now have two days of rest before the fun run, so it should be good by then.
Distance travelled today: 4km
Distance travelled so far: 157.34km
Distance left to travel: 25,596.66km
