Running - off road (Gower) 2:55:37 [3] 24.46 km (7:11 / km) +570m 6:26 / km
slept:5.0 weight:73.7kg shoes: Adidas Kanadia tr7
Long run in the Gower with Ben - stringing up two of the three orienteering areas I run on the west side.
From Llanmadoc, up Llanmadoc Hill, Hardings Down, Rhossili Down, Burry Holms, Whiteford Burrows.
Quite a few hill forts on way out. Along beach from Hill End and getting blown towards the sea a bit.
More beach after Broughton caravan park. Half way along Ben decided that we were going to go swimming fully clothed - quite cold, and followed immediately by 2k of sand blasting and going against a very strong wind. At least my top was thick enough to offer some protection
Fast 1.1 mile effort to finish - working well to push eachother right to the end. Pace not outstandingly quick (7:07/mile), but rocky track, gate, and after incredibly hard time in the wind, whilst still soaking wet. Nice way to simulate running at the end of a long race.

Followed up by session looking up light weight kit for mountain marathons. Anyone selling a lightweight tent?
Showed Bridgend two absolutely perfect examples of Bromyard parking today. Quite pleased as it's actually quite hard to do
