Monday 13 April 2009 (Bank Holiday)

Surprised myself and managed to do the 14 mile walk today! Was a struggle to get going this morning, but finally left the house a 9.30 am. Weather was a bit dismal at first, but stayed dry and for the last 3 miles or so, the sun was shining. It took me 4 hours 15 mins actual walking time, had to do a couple of "comfort" stops, but tried to make these as quick as possible this week!!!! I worked my speed out at about 3 and a half miles per hour, which, over 14 mile, I don't think is too bad.

Well I managed to walk 14 miles, that is quite a good psychological boost, because it is more than half way...... although I have wondered why we didn't just enter for the half moon on more than one occasion today!!!!

Feel a bit achy and my feet are a bit sore, but all in all don't feel too bad.

Still right on track which the training programme. Bumped into an old friend today and she offered to do some of the training walks with me, think I will take her up on it, be good to have company and also a offer a chance for us to catch up on old times....

Well .. the next walk planned is another 6 mile walk to work on Wednesday morning. Hope I've stopped aching by then!!!!!
