Petts Wood 11s group

Met Daniel after work after taking train to Bromley South. We opted for the 11s group led by Hannah which was around 15k with some quicker stuff thrown in. Felt absolutely shocking when I started and a million bucks when I finished albeit I could feel the right Achilles towards the end which is a worry. Daniel was running strong throughout in the group of 6 (Hannah, Amber, D, Tim who is still running 3.18 marathons in his 50s and one other guy).

Managed to swing a lift home with Rory and Rachel (which I was very grateful for) otherwise I would have been stuffed. A really pleasant evening and a super nice loop around Bickley. I counted 6 pubs that looked well worth a visit.

Home at 930, worked until 2am, up again at 5am for deal closing and then back to bed. Shattered now.

Monday grass recov

Easy 10k on the neighbouring fields to home (4.50s).  Right Achilles is sore out of no where.





Hilly Long AM / DC superheroes PM

Hilly Long solo AM. Bloody tough but the longer I went the better I felt. The last 10k was quick with quite a few 3.45s. 33k with the best part of 500ms of vertical climbing in a little over 2.5 hours (4.34s).

PM with Rydie, Lukie and J at the DC expo on the Southbank. Nice family outing.
