WK1D4 – Saturdays Easy Run Rescheduled

nasa-snow_1555054f
As I’m not around to run tomorrow morning I have had to reschedule once again! Currently my training to a plan hasn’t gone all that well but I’m hoping that by doing the run during the week that this is enough. According to the schedule today was supposed to be a rest day and tomorrow a slow run of 4miles in 40mins, according to my calculations I needed to set the treadmill at sub 10km/h…

As usual, that was too slow for me so I ramped it up a little to about 10.5km but stuck to that for the 4M(6.4km) @ 1% incline. Quite a long time but as I went before work I watched the news and as they have Sky News on in the gym I got a good chuckle at the poor quality setup of that network and also the stupid things that channel will do for entertainment in particular today on the news i saw the following:

Sky News reporter Katie Stallard was forced to spend the night on Dartmoor after getting trapped in the snow. She and her film crew were rescued by a gallant 4×4 driver who towed them to the village of Princeton. (link)

To summarise, Dartmoor was cut off because of the snow, they got a few vehicles moving (mainly 4×4′s then Sky decided to send in their own reporters who then got stuck and are now cut off themselves, all for cutting edge journalism!

Next run – sunday hopefully – Long slow run of 8M according to schedule (subject to change ;-) )
