Starting Training

Training for the London marathon started last week. The score:

Nov 1. 40 min @ 10 kmph = 6.66 km
Nov 3: 45 min @ 10 kmph = 7.5 km
Nov 4: 45 min @ 10 kmph = 7.5 km

Total for the week = 21.6 km

Nov 6: 5 games of squash.

Some other random observations.

- Mindless TV while on the treadmill. Star Wars beats MTV

- It's hard to concentrate running alone along the river bank. Most people are there to relax. People walking dogs, couples desperately making out, kids playing frizbee, a couple of fishermen, a couple of homeless boozers...its really hard to stay focused on my breathing and just clock in the distance. A training partner will really help.
