Getting the miles in

A couple of good training days running to and from the plant, temperatures are hovering around freezing which is good training. I'll take some pics next time to share, for now here's one of a recent training run 30 miles NE of Wichita.


I drove half way to work and ran the rest today, bit tired after the previous days early start. I got up at 3am yesterday to dial in to the monthly contract review so I can keep in touch with things in the UK, listened in whilst running to work. The sponsorship has got off to a great start with my friends and colleagues back home being extremely generous http://www.justgiving.com/CHughes-YAU. Also I have proof of the training on http://www.movescount.com/members/runner200 where you can see my training stats and routes on a map uploaded from my watch, I cant make it up anymore!..

Keeping USPS busy here with new kit arriving regularly, Dylan (eldest son) is kindly modelling my new face mask and hat (doing Darth Vader impression)


Planning a 50 miler on Monday, I'll share the route before and let you know how I go. (pls dont be shy with the justgiving site link above!)

  1. Chris, I enjoyed reading your blog and admire your race preparations. Looks like you'll be in good shape for YAU (as much as humanly possible). I look forward to seeing you in Whitehorse (I'm just running the marathon.)
    Best,
