You didn’t go out dressed like that !

Week 10
2 runs at the weekend - on Saturday I did a quick 1.4 mile with a 7.5min mile which was completely knackering - hardly seemed worth it as I was barely out the front door and I was back. Supposedly this time multiplied by 1.3 gives me my anticipated race pace and after a quick calculation - this means I should be on 9.75 min miles at half marathon race pace – I am still running 10min miles so will see if this improves – Sunday was funny - a sartorial disaster - I have come a long way in a short time and dont really care what I look like - I just want to run. Heres the deal - my shorts were dirty so I wore my swimming trunks – I need to confess that these are a disgrace they once were blue but are now a chlorine induced pink – they are not lovely – in addition all sports socks were out of commission so it had to be black ankle socks - yes yes - not a good look - indeed a bit of a state – my family were all vocal, I am never to go out dressed like that again – I may have brought shame upon us – to me I arrived home happy - run completed - trunks on - excellent – lucky for all - they were not speedos or pouchy things.
