I'm back on track with training this week and certainly feeling it! Have had to up my diet significantly just to keep up with the amount of calories I'm getting through, so I'm now having 4 or 5 meals a day and plenty of water. I'm aching slightly from a gym session yesterday; had an upper body weights session to make sure I don't get too bottom heavy. On Sunday I did a 10 mile run exploring a new direction out of Bangor, towards Caernarfon. I got a little lost and ended up running along a road through a forest in the middle of nowhere but I just retraced my route once my iPod told me I was halfway. Thankfully it meant that it was back down the huge hill I'd just slogged up. I was slightly off pace, but nothing too bad, think I need some more uptempo music for the middle sections of my long runs as I was on quite a chilled vibe again with CoMa. Off to the gym again this afternoon for a cardio session and then have a run planned for tomorrow.
Hi Declan - is this the music you're training to? I studied at Aberystwyth - so you're also probably training in the rain. Keep up the impressive work. I've blogged about you here.
