Ruth Cheesley (she/her)<p>A few pics from last weekend's 4.5 hour run, it was hard going and a sobering reminder that in 6 weeks I'll be doing 4x the distance .... Yikes!</p><p>Also, dates filled with peanut butter are my new favourite run snack!</p><p>Keeping on keeping on, active recovery week this week so much shorter runs. Still breaking in the new trainers which I'm just taking slowly. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Running</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/RunnersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RunnersOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/EDSAthletes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EDSAthletes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/EhlersDanlosSyndrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EhlersDanlosSyndrome</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/UltraTraining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UltraTraining</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Endure24" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Endure24</span></a></p>

Wendy Mundy<p>Happy to get a couple of <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FlyingFeet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FlyingFeet</span></a> shots from the weekend at <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Endure24" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Endure24</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Running</span></a> I look a lot happier than I felt</p>
Wendy Mundy<p>Blistering heat at <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Endure24" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Endure24</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BramhamPark" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BramhamPark</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Running</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Endurance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Endurance</span></a> meant I packed it in at 17 hours with 55 miles. The first few laps in the sun destroyed me so even the night runs didn&#39;t revive me and I had to walk lots with breaks each 5 mile lap. When the sun came up I couldn&#39;t face the heat again so left the course.Disappointed I didn&#39;t hit my target but know it was the right decision. Raised money for <a href="https://mas.to/tags/AlzheimersResearchUk" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlzheimersResearchUk</span></a> so all good</p>
