Getting positive!

Well its 48 hours before, I head to Clonakilty along with the rest of the Riot runners to run. I have had mixed running fortunes with this 10K, see previous posts  'Not a happy camper' - December 2013 and 'Clonakilty 10K -group trip' December 2014. It is a hilly course, which offers the full running experience. I have great admiration for the brave souls who hit the hills of West Cork, to run the half and full marathon. Hats off!! The weather forecast for Saturday is not the best, wind and rain.  But we're well used to that at this stage. Most of the Riotrunners will be running others will be cheer leading, it seems ages since we were all together, whether due to weather, injury or just life! So, Saturday will be enjoyable as I'll be catching up with the girls. My running hope is that all will go to plan (fingers and toes crossed!), the plan being to run to my ability, enjoy the run and cross the finish line smiling. A serious dose of positivity and  I'm sure, my next post will be full of cheer and running happiness!!!! 

Dark evenings, puddles and hi-viz..
I have been running mostly in the evenings and all though they have been damp even showery, I haven't had any really serious downpours. My running has been consistent enough in pace except for one extremely fast mile which I ran with Anna, a pure anomaly which happened as a result of us chatting.
I've put in a few miles over the past weeks but not nearly enough I'm sure. Fingers crossed those miles I have run and the work done at Crossfit Killarney will get me over the line smiling in Clonakilty.

So once again I say #bringiton!
