Last day - a bit of a wreck, but I loved it
... I feel wrecked. Someone might as well finish off the job and give me a pounding with a rubber mallet. Nevertheless, I'm a runner because it makes me feel good, better than any happy pill. Just pulling on my running vest and lacing up my Nike's first thing in the morning is worth getting out of bed for, and the high I get after a good workout will last the whole day. That is why I loved this holiday. Cheaper running ...
Day 5 - Just like Scotland: mountains & rain
... Meters. It feels as though I've spent the day being abused by women. Firstly, there was the morning speed session, where we had Liz Yelling beasting us round the track for a VO2 work out.

The other trainer - Steph Lightfoot - gave us a similar ...
Day 2
... training. So, new vitamins for me when I get back. Anyway, let me share what happened today. Beautiful weather, about 25 Degrees and a day for the factor 20. Morning: 10 mile mountain run, Time: 1 hour, 35 min's; Pace: totally irrelevant; Heart rate effort: 80%; Calories spent: 1205. The run started at about 1,000 Meters, reached 1,500 Meters at highest point. Mostly mountain trails, with spectacular views over Lake Annecy and beyond. The inclines were tough going and ...
