Blood

Written by Phil on April 11th, 2012. Posted in Hill work, Running

If you look back through this running blog i bet you can find 4 or 5 pictures of this blister. Not this exact one they are all different but always in the same place. It was raining all morning and when i finished work this afternoon the sun came out. So i was desperate to get out for a run but the only trainers i had with me were the ones that do this to my right heel. I had thick walking socks and thought it would be ok. Clearly not the case. It looks worse than what it is.

I went for a circular 4 miler around the quarry. This route is turning into a favourite. I get great views of the Clwydian range to the south. With it being a cross country route i ran into some thorn bushes here and there. In my head i was getting 10 inch deep lacerations to the legs and in all probability would require a top up of blood when i got home.  Wrong again :)

Stats So Far

I am sitting here waiting for the rain to stop so i can for a run. These are the totals for this year so far.

 

The Chips Are Down.

I am quite sure that in the “Keeping fit And Improving Running Manual” there is no reference to eating a massive plate of chips covered in mayonnaise and tomato sauce very late at night. Which of course is exactly what i did while watching The Masters on TV. Despite this i got up and went for a run for about an hour. I felt heavy.

Took me ages to transfer my blog to a new host. In the process i lost about 2 months of posts. I am not to bothered about that to be honest. It’s not world changing stuff and far from anything vital. I keep a record of my runs from the GPS etc so i never lose that stuff.

I have had to make Word-press a bit more secure after getting some Mal-ware in some files. So if you find it blocking you for whatever reason let me know via Twitter.

I have been out for a few runs. Yesterdays 3.5 miles was bloody freezing in the hills. Good to be back up and running (badddoom cha!)

Phew

Getting there. Just need to upload some archive stuff and the blog will be back to some sort of normality. I have been up to my neck in MySQL stuff for a few hours and i find it baffling to be honest.

If things look a little wonky i am trying to sort it out :)
