Run and no well

I'm no well (said with a very whiny voice). It was on the NyQuil last night and that helped a bit. The run was to be a 10 milers at just above a 11 minute pace. Work was a bit stressful and I didn't get going till late in the day. At mile 7.5 I had to give it a rest. I checked the level 1 training plan and I was still above that so I'm doing OK there.

Then it was swim time. I just went to the pool and got on with it, at some point I felt a lot better and the lurgy is gone! The swim went very well too.

I seem to spending a lot of time checking and double checking myself now. Its only 3 weeks to go. The cold freaked me out a bit but I'm confident I can do this thing. A friend advised me to start tapering this week and not wait till 2 weeks out. Although the book doesn't say taper I notice this week they are doing less too. So I'm hopefully on course.

I am really excited about the light at the end of the tunnel.
