Many congrats to Wardi, Speedie, happyrunning and Hilly. I like reports that tell it like it is, pain and all. And yes, trophies deserve to be displayed, to think I used to laugh at my husband's one and only squash trophy. Actually, it does look a bit sad on its own (snigger).
Achilles, you slacker, fancy only doing 65 miles this week! (welcome back, missed teasing you)
Nutrition, I don't think it needs to be very complicated, and recommend staying away from anything that requires weighing or calorie counting, or comes with celebrity fad diet status. Like BT I've never liked junk food like chips etc but my love of cake probably makes up for that, and I never go hungry or diet. Alcohol is harder, I have to restrict myself and deliberately have weeks off, I think I could easily drink too much too frequently if I let myself.
What: absolutely nowt. Why: laid up with what's hopefully 24 hr bug, have spent the whole day sleeping! But good to know you were all out there clocking up the miles in the meantime.
Laura- I am fighting a battle that I will never win- both at work and on the allotment, now I just need to set an impossible running goal and I will have a hat trick.
