Just keep it going

Just keep it going

January 3, 2019 0 By Stuart

2018 ended and 2019 started with one of those things runners love, a nice stinking cold. As much as I love my niece and nephew I think their present to me probably lasted longer than mine to them

This one was a particular stinker which kept on moving around. Mostly above the neck so I could keep walking and running until in went into my sinuses and I was to bunged up too breathe

Particularly as I’m trying to ramp up the milage for the Boston (UK) Marathon as the wonder Mrs BeestonRunner got me my entry for my Christmas present. But there’s not much else to do except to make some changes to the training plan spreadsheet and hope it all works out. No point pushing too hard and causing trouble this far out.

Potentially next time my throat starts feeling like I’m gargling razor blades I might decided that going for a cold windy walk up on Derwent Edge isn’t going to help things.

Then again, I’d have missed a great day in the hills. No Regrets and all that 🙂
