Exercise: 25km Run - Lysterfield Lake to Grants Picnic Ground and return (7’s Blue)

Okay, who thought it would be a good idea to scoff potato cakes and chips just before a long run I blame Michelle

Even though it was a great run, I had a pain in my stomach the whole way and I had to stop and walk a few times when the cramps got the better of me

I suppose the fact that I hadn’t really hydrated very well last night, other than a glass of champers, and also hadn’t really eaten the right foods….in fact didn’t eat anything last night, didn’t really help matters either

We were very lucky with the weather and it didn’t actually start to drizzle until we were about 500 metres before the end. Legs are a little weary right now and there’s a little niggle in my right knee which I’ll fix with some ice and nurofen gel, but otherwise I’m not feeling too bad.

I did consider jumping into a cold bath when I got home, but banished the thought pretty quickly

Here’s Michelle and I at the half way point

Hope to catch up with everyone at the Mothers Day run tomorrow. Time for bed now as I have to get up at stupid o’clock to be there for the 4km run
