We apologise for the loss of service....

....normal service will be resumed as soon as possible, in the meantime there will be a short intermission.......

It appears that once again I have failed to keep up a picture a day blog for a year, I mean how hard can it be? clearly I have no discipline.Didnt even make it to 6 months this time *tsk*
I have decided to give myself one more chance, but this time start on my birthday, which is tomorrow.
Not sure what difference this will make, probably none but lets see. Bear with me.
So as to start with a clean slate I have begun another blog page.
with an appropriate title. fingers crossed I make it this time.....:-)

So follow me....

Day 67 - next race please..

And so it goes on. A week after the Imber Ultra 33 mile I have my first real attempt at 'back to back' runs (eg, two long runs one after the other). Here's the number for the first, which I collected today, the Larmer 10 mile, which i will be the sweeper at.

Day 66 - a souvenir

Just got round to clearing my pack out from the weekend and found this spent bullet case I had picked up as a souvenir from Salisbury Plain (despite being told not to pick up anything shiny, I figured this was safe as it had already been fired!)

Day 65 - Recovery

So, following on from a large number of miles run, comes the demand from my body to ingest a rather large number of calories. These were a necessity of course :-)

Day 64 - what a mug!

...but not just any old mug. This was awarded instead of a finishers medal at the Imber Ultra 33 mile trail race around salisbury plain. You'd think wouldnt you that a plain would be flat but no. 

33 miles of mud, hills, more mud, rain, hail and gale force winds, means this mug is now a treasured possession!

Day 63 - Moors Valley parkrun

Hazel's first time at Moors Valley parkrun and she took 5 mins off her xmas day time at Poole, which she says she doesnt like. Enjoyed running it with her :-)

Day 62 - On Track

My tracker has arrived from Race Drone to test out on Sundays Imber Ultra. It's nice and compact. It looks very simple, an on/off button and an SOS button in case of emergency. I don't actually know if anything will happen if i press the SOS button but im not going to test it out! This should send my whereabouts to a web page where friends can see how well or badly Im doing on the day :-) I plan on hiring one for the 100k in May so I wanted to see how well they worked.
