Wednesday 10th December 

8.88m @ 8.10 p/m - 72 mins 

The first of the mid week long runs! Really good formula this evening though on a crisp, clear winters night. The first 'leg' of the run was the 'Applause IT running club' excursion; a saunter out of town and through Edgbaston with Rachel and Jack. Both are in good shape and we covered 5 miles or so in just over 8 minute miling, before I then carried on home up the Hagley Road with a bit of Roots Manuva against a windy blast, to take the mileage up to almost nine for the night. It was a great way of shaking out the cobwebs after a long couple of days in the office.

I'm hoping the office run will become a regular occurrence, it's certainly easier doing a long mid-week run with company.

No running with BVH tomorrow though; it's Danny's 12th birthday :-)
