Jesus- its really happening! One week to go, all the hard work apparently done, so they tell me, (they being training schedule) and I should be well able to do it. So they tell me. Running for Focus Ireland. Collected 200 euro already from my gigs and passing the hat around..
Had a good week of training, but had a little scare too..
On Tuesday after playing tennis, badminton an soccer, I felt a little tweak just below my right hip.
I rested on Weds and ran 12 miles, a gorgeous run around the perimeter, in grass and autumnal woods in the Phoenix park. There are lakes there, and I also met a Stag. Big antlers. We just looked at each other from about 10 feet away. Very cool. Hip was Ok, not too many problems, I did some sprint training up any hills I could find for extra power
Friday, I played soccer and the extra power really showed, I winning balls and beating players that normally would beat me so very happy.
Saturday, as usual 4 nightly gigs this week, so it was a nice 3 or 4 miler with push ups and sit ups every minute of running. Really good workout and again just looking to improve overall strength.
Serious drinking on Sunday. Lock in, Guiness for strength!
Monday- just some light stretching today and push ups etc- and I'll play Badminton and soccer Tuesday and go for a 5 miler on Thursday and nothing just rest and stretvhing until THE BIG TEST.
Got my race number and it is the number of the beast, and the number of the beast is 11888.
