Weekly summary - 15 weeks to go

I often end up feeling more tired during a week off work, with all the extra activity (and driving!), but I felt a little more in control this week. Despite the coldest spell for years - a day time max of -2 midweek, I felt on top of things, resulting in one of my highest weekly totals. I did get some soreness in my left adductors - no doubt due to all the running on the righthand side of highly cambered country lanes - but my legs soon recovered.

Stubbington 10k next weekend, so a bit of a cut-back mini-taper next week.
