Well today was rather chilly so went with the long joggers not shorts this week, gloves and an extra tee shirt and got out and did Week 9 Consolidation Run 44 so good to get another 4 miles under the belt a little slower but hey when your aiming to build distance to the half Marathon it’s not a problem. Got my Team Pilgrims welcome package just need to find my team members, sponsorship going well but always do with more. Good luck to all runners out there make use of this good weather.

Great start to the day Papillon17 , this weather is gorgeous, bright sunshine and crisp air, perfect. Slow is the nest way, especially when you are building up to a HM?!! Wow, you're braver than me!!

Thanks Mummycav I have my reasons raising funds for the hospice that looked after my mum and dad. The half is almost a year to the day mum passed away and I graduated so seemed to good an opportunity to miss.

Great running and like you say a bit chilly now , its been like that for the past week where I live but once you're running you warm up nicely. See you got your welcome package , did that include a running plan to get you to half marathon distance? 😊😊

Yes it did a 13 week vitality one, which I had downloaded to have a look at previously. Sure we will be fine.
