Training Run 1 - 4.77 miles / 7.68 km, 38'01"

As I suffer from problems of motivation with my running training, I've decided to note on here from now on the details of runs I undertake.  This is to help me to reflect on how well/badly my training is going and also to help motivate me at times when I'm feeling down.  Hopefully seeing the number of times I run will make me feel that I do it more often than I actually think I do!  So here goes:

Distance: 4.77 miles / 7.68 km 

Time: 38 minutes 1 second

Description: 5 laps of Highbury fields (plus there and back)

Conditions: Very wet!  Heavy rain for first half, eased off and ceased completely by end.  Running on tarmac but lots of puddles.  Not particularly cold or windy.

Feeling:  Generally good.  No blisters!  Exhausted at end, definitely gave 100%.  Legs ache a bit, slight stitch on right hand side towards end of run..
