Just ran round Richmond Park (London)...in the dark dodging Deer, a badger rabbits and a cat, 7 miles which for me is amazing, I've been aiming to do it for years and tonight, when I left, I hadn't planned to until I got to the point of no return, Broomfield Hill, once you run down that you're fucked, I ran down it laughing and shouting "this is it"I stopped for stretch just after Sheen gate but to punish myself spent from there to Richmond gate walking 100m and sprinting(uphill) 100 metres, then from Richmond gate to Kingston gate non stop. Very proud of myself, another two and a half times more and I've done a marathon...piece of pish!
Nice job ACVillaI was off out at 0630 this morning for the first time since 13 Sept (having recovered from the bout with poison oak) - got to the 2nd choice park where I run (there was a cross country meet at the first) only to discover that it was under 4 inches of water. FUCK!!! Drove back home hitting every fucking red light on the way - and ran on our estate - which I stopped doing ages ago because I was getting chased by dogs. Luckily they were all still asleep.
