This is how I see myself in four weeks. |
However, I have been using the System In Sport (SIS) range of products since my training started so will be switching to Lucozade and I hope it doesn't cause me any problems! Either way, I need to keep my fluid intake up.

Or so I have been told..... |
Still not at 100% but am confident that the last four weeks' training will get me there.

Mon - Rest
Tue - 30 mins easy run
Wed - Rest

Getting my gear prepped for tomorrow's final long run - some choice tracks on my new Nexus 4 and a bottle of two of lucozade and I should be good to go. Just hope it doesn't snow, tomorrow! Still, many thanks to all the support I have recieved so far. They have been very encouraging and makes the whole project worthwhile. Keep the donations coming, talk to friends and family and anyone else who would be interested!
