good long runs

Before yesterday afternoon's long run (24.3 miles ... hilly ... fartlek ... windy) I was a bit apprehensive as my previous two long runs have ended in injuries of one sort or another.  I'm pleased to report that all went very well indeed and so I approached this morning's 27 miler in a slightly better frame of mind.

Left home just after 8.00am having had just a light breakfast.  It was hard work for the first six miles or so but ever so gradually it got easier and easier.  The weather hardly helped though, windy and showery.

Again, no problems at all except for the usual tiredness.  No injuries, no falling, no emergency first aid ...

Happy again.
