Draycote - who'd have thought

Felt motivated on Sunday morning so took myself off to Draycote for a benchmark run. I'm figuring I have to be able to get round there twice if I'm going to be capable of running the 13.1 km distance after the swim and bike legs.
 
It's just under 5 miles around the reservoir, 7.6 km. I've been round here a couple of times before but had to resort to walking both times. Today using intervals of 2 mins and 3 mins I made it in 50 m 5 s, WITH NO WALKING :)    If I hadn't been bored, a little bit tired and it wasn't raining I *might* have been tempted to add a 2nd lap just to see how bad it would be. But I was, it was and so I didn't - save that for another time.
 
Biking
Oops! Got a bit keen on ebay last week and bought a turbo-trainer. Due to pick it up next week. Hmmmm.
