Miles I actually ran: 11ish
Days without caffeine or alcohol: 6
Went for a long run this morning. I joined a few people from my running club who were also training for races and needed to go for longer runs. We all split off after a few miles as everyone was going at different paces, and I found a couple of blokes who were going at the same distance and pace as me.
It was all going fine until the last 1/2 a mile, when I was pretty sure my legs were going to fall off. I told the guys to go ahead, I knew where I was going and I would meet them at the end. When they noticed I was no longer behind them as they reached the top of a hill and turned around a corned, they stopped, turned back to find me, and stood at the top of the hill calling my name. I, however, was crawling up the hill, wondering if I could just stop for a nap under a bush for a bit, and slightly embarrassed that they had had to come look for me. It was very sweet though, and nice to know they weren't going to let me get lost in the depths of the common by myself :).
