    8.5km for me earlier in the week. Nice temperature but very very wet, so lots of squelchy mud. - Good fun run!

    Mileage Reporting Week 6 (Jan 07 - Feb 13)

    Not too bad a week for me -7.5km at the beginning of the week, another 7.5km midweek and then 16km to finish off at the weekend. Very cold and windy at the weekend, but dud a different route, which meant I had to keep going to get back to finish. All good runs…:)
