72 days to go - English cricket can smile

Route #4 Duration : 46 min 51 sec Energy : 451 KCal Distance : 4.9 miles Max HR : 130 Bpm Av HR : 122 Bpm Mile pace : 09:33 mn/mile Mission statement :- 4 miles in around 40 mins (easy pace 10:00) I have been reticent on the subject of England's current tour of Australia recently, no surprise there then as they were doing historically badly and I had been forced into a state of cricketing denial. Fair is fair though, I just have to mention the sudden upturn in England's form. Winning three matches on the bounce, two of them against the Aussies, is no mean feat and the deeds of Paul Collingwood should be lauded across the land! On the running front, just a nice gentle jog today in preparation for tomorrow's 14 mile long run. I hope they have got the weather forecast wrong, if not I am looking at 2 hours plus in a deluge! JD and Angie dug deep today, thank you very much, very generous!
