Training Log: BrandNewMe

Meadows, bruntsfield, grange with both sons.

Same as Monday but faster. Sub 11min miling! Didn’t have to walk today, and felt like I was actually running. Everything around my left hip was bad, but what’s new there!

Meadows with the kids. So so tired.

Weight - baby elephant
Sleep - bugger all
Clothing - all quite a few sizes too small.

If Lucy saw me on the meadows she’d have me down as a punter for sure.

Down Priestfield road to the hotel, over the golf course and back up innocent railway.

Got home and when Lucy heard that I had been 12 min miling she -in all seriousness - thought I had been walking. I did a bit of walking and stopped a few times to rejig my too tight clothing to allow me to breathe - but stopped the watch obvs.

Queens drive. I gave up trying to get boy 2 back to sleep again at 6 (he woke at 1:20, 2:30, 4 and 5:15) and headed out for a walk around the seat. It was very quiet, and was nice listening to a podcast. I must have been v tired and not waking in a straight line though as all sorts of unfit looking types were walking past me by the end. Not much sleep.

To Portobello and back. Boiling day. Tired out now. Not getting much sleep at all just now which doesn’t help.

Round the meadows. Boiling.
