Jonny and I arranged for another run together after work. This week Jonny came to our house in Paisley and we ran up on the Braes.
I was keen to try out my new Inov-8 X-Talons and they didn’t disappoint. The grip they gave was superb and I was able to run all the way round without slipping much whereas on Sunday with my Hoka’s I was all over the place. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep up with Steven now!!
Jonny had a big week last week with a 20mile and 35mile West Highland Way run so this was his easier week but he was running really well and we both had a great time! The weather was kind as well.
Once home we had a lovely meal prepared by Katrina and then did a podcast interview for the next West Highland Way Race podcast. Jonny is one of the runners I’m following in the build up to this year’s race.
I’ve run the last 6 days so tomorrow is a rest day from running but I’ll cycled to and from work. Then Saturday we have our 30mile West Highland Way Training weekend. The forecast doesn’t look great but we’ll take whatever comes! One of the nice things about staying at the Oak Tree at Balmaha is within 5mins of finishing the race you can be in the shower!!!
Finally a photo of my new shoes after their first run …
Don’t worry I cleaned them straight away and they look brand new again … until the next run!
