Had a really crap month of running and I was starting to think my first ultra marathon had destroyed my running forever, terrible ankle pain on all my runs and just couldn't run faster than 7:40 m/miles if my life depended on it.
Saturday morning running downhill I managed to trip on somebody's driveway, fly through the air and smash my whole left side especially my elbow into that lovely ribbed concrete surface.
I had a little cry and a sit down, then got up and I ended up having a lovely 20 mile run. Sunday morning ran our club championship half marathon, not great but compared to what I have been doing for the last month I was chuffed to bits with 1:31:16.
I've got four weeks now to get some time on feet before Jungfrau Marathon, in reality I'm just looking to enjoy it and be in some sort of form for Snowdon Marathon in October.
