Quick training update. After giving blood last Friday, I didn’t run on Saturday and Sunday (instead I drove to Brum to pick up my mountain bike). Yesterday I decided that running in to work a long way around, would be a cracking idea. It wasn’t and hurt like hell, and I found myself finishing, muttering “dig deep” to myself. I am putting this down to giving blood, but suspect that I am just not as fit as I should be. Maybe this is age catching up with me – answers on a postcard please…
