Finally beaten the allergy/cold/cough funk.  Just wanted to see how the body would cope this morning.  I'll do a much tougher workout tomorrow.

Poor run today.  Wanted to do 6+ at MGP.  However, the petrol tank was empty so cut it short.  It just seemed like a futile effort to carry on with the MGP stuff.

Legs felt a lot better today....although it was just a short easy run.  Tomorrow I'll go to Gazelles for a speed workout.

Body felt tired today...4th day in a row of running.  Back with the group.  2K at MGP, 3 x 1K a HMGP and 4 x 400s at 5K pace then a weary jog back to the gym.  Day off tomorrow then 18 miles on Saturday.

Tough run today.  It was 40 degrees (or therabouts), but thre was a wind with some serious bite.  I wasn't quite sure what to wear.  I think in the end I underdressed as I felt quite cold from  about half way.  This made it tough to stay focused and my speed dipped in the final few miles.  However, i am pleased overall that I managed to get some good distance in.  Overal pace around 8:10 min/mile.  I need more output...but this was never meant to be a speedy long run.
