Busy day today

Distance: 825m
Crawl: 32 Lengths
Breaststroke: 1 length

For some reason the pool was very busy again today, even though half term is over, so I went straight into the "Fast lane" and did my best, moving out of the way when the faster swimmers wanted to overtake me. I'm getting better at swimming up and down with much less rest at the ends, and managed 32 lengths (or possible 34 I think I may have lost count about half way) of crawl in half an hour. And since the non-laned off section was busy, I swam another length - breaststroke - back to the shallow end to finish, where it was easier to get out of the pool.

This brings my total distance in the pool to over 11 miles since September (18250m)

Running 13.1 miles in memory of Carl

I ran the Silverstone Half Marathon on 15th March 2009. I managed the 13.1 mile course in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Not a bad effort for my first Half Marathon! I returned in 2010 to run it in 1 hour 54 minutes, and plan to do it again in 2011. I decided to run this in aid of The PSC Trust and PSC Support in memory of my brother Carl, who died from liver failure in November 1997. If you'd like to sponsor me for this - please email me at pscrun@ulen.me.uk PSC Trust
