The fantastic 4 completed second long run as a team this morning and a good 17 miles it was. On what was a cold morning 3 of the 4 set off jacket less (southern softy Sean, opted to keep his on!). Now I'm not saying it was cold but it took 20 minutes in a hot bath for him to regain his testicles, so those 3 are really tough!!!
Sandra's trainers still managed to keep clean despite a stretch along the canal and Jim's look like he did his 17 on the treadmill they are so clean!! Sean's on the other hand look like something from the Battle of Ypres!!!
Another alphabet game was disastrous and played with a real lack of interest!! Does anyone know a girls name beginning with Q!!!?
The route was well "planned" by Jim-might need to apply the rules from school homework and give points for evidence of "workings out"!!!
In terms of the running all completed the challenge well in an average pace of 9:32 v plan of 9:54 with the last miles again strong!! (there are some worries re next weeks 20, but faith is needed and maybe a slight drop in pace required).
On a final note we probably need to be better prepared for on-run fuel, as we all ended up fairly hungry and in need of replenishment.
The run was capped off with a wee coffee and "boggin" tuna toasty!! and a view of Jim's parachute jump (or is that fall!!?)
Good work team-a wee drink tonight to reward ourselves and then roll on next week!!
