As part of 2014kx365 Challenge I aim to run/walk a minimum 1k everyday throughout 2014 and hopefully fund raise for chosen charities SANDS www.justgiving.com/2014kx365jimbarron and Time is Precious www.justgiving.com/365jimbarron I intend to run a minimum of 5k a day and I will strife to do this, but as we dont know what life may throw at us I have included a buffer zone to enable me to drop down to the minimum. This blog is for those who would like to follow my challenge of running everyday.

Day 187/365
3rd new pair of runners this year and I needed them after running 8.5 miles yesterday it seemed I needed 9.78 miles today to reach 1000 running miles in 2014kx365 challenge. Would I go for it or leave it for tomorrow, if I intend to get at least 2014 miles in the year 2014 today was as good as any, I needed to dig deep. Dig deep I did, along Colliers Way cycle path. From the working men's club in Radstock along the cycle path past Kilmersdon and Mells as far as the cattle grid is just over 5 miles at this point I turned around and ran back. It's easy running along the cycle path just one foot in front the other but I find it rather tedious. A nice warm sunny evening the sun was shining in my eyes almost the whole way back. Tried to increase the pace a little on the return but legs were tired after yesterday still managed average pace just under 9 min per mile taking just under 1hr 30 mins. 1000 running miles completed since 1st January 2014.
