On tooour

Day 111 Friday 20th April 3.1 miles : miles to date 743.1 Due to a really heavy work day, I just could not run before departing for Dorset on a rugby tour. The first can's of beer were passed around before the coach had left, followed by a number of others and port. Three hours later, we arrived at our luxury (ahem) chalets in the dark, where I proceeded to drop the lads off and head into the darkness on road, with no head torch, reflective gear or map, and no idea where I was going or how to get back. I was joined by David Morley and we wound our way around the lanes and even managed to get back. We re-hydrated with some Welsh wine, before I spent the rest of the night getting to know one of the other dads very well, as we had to share a small pull out sofa bed that dipped in the middle with no duvet. Day 112 Saturday 21st April 5.2 miles: miles to date 748.2 A great run along the coast after a few beers, with my new house mate. Took it easy and just enjoyed the views. So many things happened today, impossible to know where to start. The boys played fantastic rugby, winning 89-7 which put everyone in a great mood. Day 113 Sunday 22nd April 3 miles : miles to date 751.2 Came home, fell asleep, woke up and grumpily ran three miles very slowly vowing to get back to treating the body a bit more carefully. Right, I need a cup of tea!
