Man Flu!

I've steadily been upping the training every couple of weeks for a while, with my main goal being the first indoor grand prix on the 11th of december. Once there the dreaded pre race nerves took hold as I had never ran indoors before, but once I warmed up i couldn't wait to get going! I put on my un-used Nike Victory's (i've owned them for months without using them!) and managed to nab a cheeky 3rd place in my race, ending up with 5th overall!

Its fair to say I was more than chuffed, and I returned home full of enthusiasm for my running, and less than 48 hours later I was in bed (missing a free curry!!!!!!) with the worse dose of Man Flu i've had in a long time. Pants.

After spending a few days off work i'm back training now, just in time to run off the huge amount of food I plan to consume in the next few days... Cant wait!

From all of us at Gloucester Sports have a great Christmas and  happy new year,

Steve, Lofty and Pat
