This morning I only had time for a short run as I was heading off to Carlisle to celebrate my friends Birthday with lunch and cocktails!
So I had in my mind that I would do a short, fast one!
I set off out the door and after approximately 100 metres I changed my goal from "a short fast one" to "surviving 3 miles without landing on my backside!".
It was a bright and beautiful morning but exceptionally cold which resulted in the pavements being exceptionally slippy! Whenever I could get away with it I ran on the road!
I was thankful to get back in one piece and had managed 3.40 miles at a 9.01 minute mile pace - without landing on my backside! I was amazed I had gone at this pace as I felt like I was going exceptionally slow!
I don't think I will be running tomorrow as not long after getting back the snow started to fall!
I certainly won't stay upright in this!
Total Janathon Running miles: 51.94
Total Janathan Walking miles: 12.79
Total Janathan Cycling miles: Zero
Total Janathon Swimming miles: 3.83
TOTAL JANATHON MILEAGE: 68.56
Positive thought for today: I have some good friends who I don't see very often but when we do get together we know how to have fun!
I have dabbled with Triathlons and have decided that for now I am going to concentrate on running and Open Water Swimming! I am very lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places in the UK and to have Lake Windermere as my local playground!
