Well done, looking good Beastie!

And the "mind f*ck" of running what you'd normally consider an amazingly long run but now forcing yourself to think of it as "just another training run" is one of the great thrills of endurance training.

Excellent - warm weather as well, which makes it harder.

Well done you. I like the idea of reconnaissance runs before the HM, it takes the pressure off to see the course.

Not what you're looking for?
