Can you believe its Day 6!?! Had a great nights sleep and woke up feeling really energised. Had a bit of a tickly cough but felt OK. Weather was good again so able to run in shorts and vest. Felt great out there today, ran all the way around and finished in 4.34. Saw Penny at Hawkshead and Mike (both from Hoad Hill) at 11 miles. Saw Mum and Dad a few times too which was great.
Had some treatment on my big toe (it was banging on the top of my shoe), it is purple this evening and throbbing like mad. My achilles didn't give me and trouble until mile 20 when Mike put an ice pack inside my tubigrip on my leg. It did ease it and meant that I could continue to run all the way back. Had a fantastic reception again from Brathay staff, both at the bottom of the drive and on the lawn. As always Shelagh was there with a big hug for me.
Had usual dip in the river and then some fantastic physio from Mike. I feel really knackered this evening, could only manage to eat a bit of my dinner. Forced some cereal and banana down later. We were going to watch The Apprentice but had to knock it on the head as I needed to go to bed. Hope I have more energy tomorrow morning!!
