April Fool

Today is the first of the new month and I finished march with a good pace 3.5 run around the block to keep my legs going only taking 20 minutes, and bringing my march total to 48.2 km, not bad considering the 12 i managed just the month before in about 10 more runs so Feb had an average distance of 1.73km and march 2.8km per run. So it is starting to go in the right direction.

The new month came in with another after work run with Christelle that due to one small wrong turn lasted 6km rather than the 5 we had planned, but it was a record for both distance and time on my feet - and in one run 50% of the total distance of February.

I am now starting to think that I will be able to complete the 10km run at the end of May, but I must not try to run before I can walk and slowly increase the distance.

One other thing of note was that in March I signed up for the royals park half marathon just 3 weeks after the Great North Run so it looks like my initial goal will not be the end of my running. I also helped out the birthday fairy today by ordering my gift from him that should help me reach my goal but as it will be a surprise next week i will talk More about that then.
