Week 3 Day 1 Run Commute

17 January 2017 | Richard

My first run commute of 2017, despite still getting rid of the manflu from last week. Felt OK, but actually quite pleased with the overall time. Weighed myself afterwards and have dropped only one pound since just before Christmas which was disappointing at first but maybe not too bad given I usually pile on the pounds over Christmas every year.

Week 51 Day 1 Walk to Work, Run Home

20 December 2016 | Richard

Back running after a few weeks’ illness; trying to shift the manflu still. Slowed down a bit by fire crews, police and ambulances at a fire on Bermondsey Wall.

I’ve lost 3Â½oz in the last couple of weeks … whoop!

Painful, Wheezing 5k Run Commute

5 December 2016 | Richard

Back after a 5 week lay-off due to manflu – still can’t shake it – and injuries. And my ankle isn’t fixed and my knee is playing up again, yadda, yadda…

And worse still, I’ve gained 1lb despite walking 75.4km to and from work.

Week 24 Day 1 Run Commute 5k

15 June 2016 | Richard

Very windy and imminent threat of heavy rain plus I’ve come down with (yet another) summer cold. Great! But quite pleased with the run.

Weight is down Â½lb since last time…

Week 22 Day 2 Run Commute 5k

2 June 2016 | Richard

Very windy and cold – it’s June, FFS! – but a good time this evening.

Weight is up Â½kg, or 1lb since the end of April.

Week 17 Day 3 Run-Commute 4k

27 April 2016 | Richard

So with less than a week before the Milton Keynes Half Marathon, my left ankle was dodgy with the tendons(?) pulling tight at the front, so with discretion being the better part of valour I pulled up short.

And I’ve lost a massive 0.1kg since Saturday!

Surrey Docks Weekend 5.2k

23 April 2016 | Richard

Thought I’d check my local section of the London Marathon route for them tomorrow! Hard work after nearly two weeks’ break from running due to work travel. Cold, windy, warm and still, all in one run too.

I’m down about 1lb to 87.6kg
