17 miles completed ! Went from Lytham Green all the way along the proms to between South and Central piers Blackpool, turned round and came back. Youngest daughter was a star by cycling all the way with me, carrying drinks and supplies. She got rewarded with an ice cream after !!!  Weather was quite warm and hardly any wind so perfect conditions, had 2 gels, 2 bottles lucozade and an energy bar during the run and had no stomach issues. Ran past and said hello for former England Rugby manager Brian Ashton who was out walking his dog, also say a plane from the airport doing tricks in the sky, nose dives and loops etc. All in all a change of scenery, nice weather and some company made for a good run.

Will prob now do some sport relief runs next Sunday and then look to do 19-20 miles the week after and then that will be it for long runs.

A PNE win and England beat the Irish !
