Friday 30th March
We had the 2 Nicks and Sarah running this morning, all competing on the 4mile route. Nick C was running after he ran out of excuses last week. Having twisted his ankle a couple of weeks ago it was expected he would be out for a good month, but having skied all last week with no problems he had no excuse not to run. He did great as well, setting off fast and finishing alongside Nick B just outside 9 mins per mile average, Well done the Nicks. Sarah had a great run too, finishing just behind the boys with her 2nd fastest ever run with the club. Well done!!
Monday 2nd April
Bank holiday weekend and everyone was full of Easter Eggs or Sauvignon Blanc or both!! Karen seemed to have the best tactic though, she fed her son, Owen, loads of Easter eggs just so she could go and beat him this evening. She had to run fast herself for it though, her 7m 45s per mile a very impressive pace! Owen couldn’t catch her, but I am sure we will see some revenge next week without the added chocolate weight. Also running the longer route this week was Sarah, she admitted that last week she may have gotten lost a little, but this week there was no mistake! Only a very deep muddy puddle that slowed her down in an almost perfect run. Sarah’s preparation for her first ever half-marathon is going very well, which she proved with a great 5.8mile run, well done!!
For most people driving around Warsash this evening it must have looked like the 3 wise monkeys running round. Nick, Charles and myself completed the 4mile route in a typically social fashion. Mostly debating the benefits of staying on a boat when going on a cruise, you know important world issues stuff like that!! It made for a good distraction though, as Nick completed his 2nd run of the weekend without any ankle problems and Charles finished with a 9m30s average, 20seconds per mile quicker than last week!!
Same routes next week for the last time!!
