Nearly There!

More of the same. A couple of days rest at the beginning of the week due to ache in hip, but OK by Wednesday - no probems now. Had great physio session with Jugger (Mark Coulson) he has been a star over the last 12 months and is also going to be part of the physio team during the 10 in 10 - yippee. Also went for some treatment on my feet - all part of getting myself ready. Over the weekend the table turned a little and after so many months of my running taking precedent, I fitted my runs around the family. Saturday Morgan and I went to support Mac who was running in the 3 Peaks Fell Race in the Yorkshire Dales. It is a great spectator event and Morgan was happy to supply the jelly babies. Mac did really well and finished in 4:30. In the last 20 days he had run the Paris Marathon, Lochaber Marathon and now another 23 miles and over 5700 ft of climbing. I was dead proud to be there providing support and to see him cross the line. Sunday we went to watch Morgan play in the Under 12's Cumbria Cup Final. Unfortunately they lost 30 points to 4 against a much bigger and stronger side. Morgan played brilliantly, scored Barrow Island's try and tackled everything in sight! Shame he couldn't have held the 'cup' aloft but there will always be another day!
Will keep the mileage low this week probably around 35 miles, concentrate on keeping fit and healthy, eat well, lots of sleep and no stress! Almost there now - woohoo!
