It's been a while since I last ran - almost a week - but it's been a packed week with other priorities. I've had a job interview, got the promotion I was after, visited the dentist for the first time since University and left with all my teeth intact - for now, a second opinion is required before they extract anything. My mouth is till a ruin, buggered by smoking, but I have a reprieve for now. And tomorrow I will be enjoying my 40th birthday present - a blast round a track in a Lambo, which I'm really looking forward to after my original booking was changed by a Lee Colegate from Peterborough who has now been identified as a fraudster and told to bugger off.
So this was the first session where I've been required for any real length of time, only half an hour but that's a major step up from anything I've done for about 18 months, without a rest or walking break. And it wasn't too bad at all! I think the few days off allowed some recovery time for my poor old legs, which they really appreciated. Pace-wise slightly off where I'd like to be, but I have plenty of time to pick this up. I'm still deep within the green, 'optional' part of my training plan. I'm not doing any of the short build up sessions this week, but will attempt the long run on Sunday - 5 to 6 miles.
Has been a super week for me so far, with more fun to come!

Apologies for all who, like me, hate text verification, but Poland is full of scum, hitting me with 10 to 20 spam comments a day and this is the only way to stop it.
