Day 42: we are rock-hard.

Today coach Stephen and I did a 70 min Fartlek session which was *tough*. The weather was not great -- we had quite a bit of drizzle, at times full-on rain, which made the terrain wet and in places slippery. To top it all up, we actually got lost! We had intended to run along the Regent's Canal to Victoria Park (nice), but managed to take a wrong turn and ended in Limehouse Cut, somewhere between an industrial estate and a Tesco (not nice)... Not the most inspiring of landscape. I also paid dearly for the amount of creamy cake and cheesy pizza I ate last night at Laura's party: I felt so heavy the whole time!

Anyway, what counts is that we made it, and we even jogged a lot longer than planned in the end. We definitely deserved our Sunday roast at the local pub!

And now it should be fun to see how stiff our legs will be tomorrow :) I for one had some rather painful knees towards the end, and Stephen's ankles seem to be playing up a bit.

We are so hard core :)
