Saturday 17th March

3 miles - David Lloyd treadmill

Typical. Not a days illness (not even a sniff) in almost 3 months of training and the day before a 20 miler, I'm feeling decidedly dodgy. Think it's a bit of a stomach bug and Sian's had much the same - or could it be a reaction to over indulging in the pretzels and chocolate digestives? Also feeling really tired as James had learnt how to crawl into bed at 4am in the morning, and then flip around like a slippery fish - he was up at an ungamely time today. Anyhow, all these excuses, but I'm sure it'll be OK tomorrow - have read the bumph and it's looks al ittle hiller than Gloucester, but that should suit. I'll treat it like the Keyworth 1/2 before Xmas - run to enjoy it and not worry about the time. Also, not the ideal preparation - took Sian out early for Mothers Day - a family meal at TGI Friday's. Not sure if caramel swirl cheesecake is packed with good running fuel? Interesting weather forecast for tomorrow - cold, dry and windy.
