Leonardo DiCaprio

Marathon S.

Had another great session last night at the gym, donned the Nike kit again (It had been washed once more so was ready for action), hopped on the treadmill, set it at 7.9Kmph, incline of one with a towel over the display and got to it.

With the trusty Garmin F305 on my wrist so I could check my heart out I set about a 60 min jog to help with the preparation for the Clapham Common 10K on the 27th of this month.

I varied my speed between 7.7 and 9.5 to keep my heart in the zone 155 - 172 which seems to work best for my body and where I hope to be during the half.

Anyway, as I was getting bored I started to recite the poem "If" in my head then realised I didn't know all the words so need to revise, I then did the 12 times table but kept thinking of that inch worm song (Not sure where that came from) I was then thinking about whether you could use Rowntrees BonBons (More product placement) for fishing for carp then got onto who I'd like to play me in the feature film of my life story and preparation for the half. I decided after much deliberation that it has to be Leo DiCap having seen him in the film Blood Diamond the other week. I want the screenplay and direction to be handled by Frank Darabonte with me having a cameo roll as a jogger in a mankini in the background in one of the major dramatic scenes!

Having an easy weights session tonight then a longer run tomorrow night as it's my birthday at the weekend and I can't see myself doing much training as I become the 40!

MoFo's on the rampage
