All good so far. Worst part was starting core work again, but this looks to be even more important when running longer distances, so better get back on it. Unfortunately I had a cold at the same time - sneezing hurt.
So next week is CHRISTMAS! Merry Christmas one and all!
This is the plan for next week, but obviously it is the season to be jolly....may not go entirely according to plan....

Don't think the weather has read your blog! 5miles easy jog??? Nothing would be easy today, strong winds, horizontal rain, cold??? Wise move to revise schedule and do an hours workout in Morrison's, weight lifting bottles, joints of meat,bags of spuds not to mention loading trolley, unloading trolley at till, bagging up said shopping, putting in car, unloading and putting away!!! Phew. Good job you could carb load while having a pre Christmas lunch!!!! Tomorrow is another day although having seen the forecast it could be a wet 7 miles!!
