Week 5 London Marathon training summary

Not really sure how to say this, but this week's training schedule was a complete write off.

It began with the worst snow fall Britain had seen in 20 years, the country ground to a halt, and the weather for the rest of the week was cold, icy and more snow fall.

And it ended with some swimming on Saturday night, but only at a party that entailed a lot if alcohol. So whatever calories I burnt off treading water in the heated outdoor pool, I matched with the bottles of lager and glasses if champagne. A cracking party!

As with most of the country, it was hard to lace up the trainers with the snow and icy pavements, and get out there. However I did see some brave folk give it a go.

Now I need to really kick off the stamina training and get back out there.
