So humid out there today! Glad to get that one out of the way after the Easter break. To be honest it felt really good. A few days rest has gotten rid of all that accumlated fatigue I'd built up.

[Rich]

Back out tonight, yo.

Kinell, James has really clocked the miles.

My knee is still knackered, but getting there slowly. I've signed up for Brighton marathon 2015 ffs. What a dick. My knee best be able to hack the training, let alone the race!

Went in the ballot for London but am expecting the big **** off. Might do Edinburgh though as it's meant to be easy... As far as marathons go anyway

Snap - entered the last 4 years and still haven't got anywhere! They used to do 5 in a row and you're in but that ended a while ago! Shame, Paris is meant to be a good one to do too!

That was a horrible 3 miles I did this morning, perhaps should have given it more time for my Weetabix and cup of tea to digest maybe.

I actually feel like I'm getting unfitter instead of fitter the more running I do.

Probably fatigue setting in mate after being such a lazy get for so long. Take a couple of days off and then you'll feel much better when you get back out there.

Supplements - Does any one take any for running? Is there anything that really helps with muscle recovery and fatigue? I've recently started taking l-carnitine which does seem to have helped, but I'm not sure if it's the placebo effect

Anyone got any suggestions?
