RE: No-Excuses-Vember
No, I'm not a mad scientist, just a slightly irritable engineer. The 5+ hours travel was for one week only; trawling up to Cambridge on the train (which necessitates going through London). I prefer to get home every night just to give the missus a bit of moral support (e.g. Wednesday night I got to clear up a cot full of baby vomit, when I could have been out for a pleasant meal with colleagues. It's what life's all about...)
I managed full out-and-back runs on Monday and Friday, and a half session on Wednesday, for a total of around 20 miles for the week. Highest weekly mileage since a certain week back in April. It was a probably a bit much, I felt jaded by Friday night, but am (almost) raring to go again this week, hopefully with some more conventional routes.
I'll be glad to ditch that pack, though. Although I'm sure it's nothing compared with a giant chicken costume...
