Pride and Prejudice
My parents offered to look after the smallW's last night, so MrsW and I took ourselves off to the new cinema in town. Being fit people we decided to walk into town its only 20 minutes. One thing it did show me was how much the town I live in changes at night. Their were large groups milling around not actually doing anything. They were probably deciding which pub to blindinly drunk in. For the first time in 10 years of living here I was concerned about my safety. This should not be. The council has made a start by removning the license of one of the late night bars, forcing it to close. We could do with at least another 2 or 3 losing their licenses as well.
Reached the cinema safely though. We had gone to see Pride and Prejudice which was very good, especially Keira Knightley as Lizzie, though I prefer Colin Firth as D'arcy he does do a good line in stuck up romantically inept men. The only problem with going to the cinema was MrsW had a packet of toffee eclairs and I kept on finding one thrust into my hand for my consumption. That coupled with pint of beer aptley called "Fallover" (6% abv) didn't bode well for a run in the morning.
Woke up at about 7 and finally managed to convince my body to get out of bed at 8 to go for a run. Nice and easy start of the long slow runs - 5 miles. As it had been a late night I rigged the route with a long down slope with the end being short sharp up. Got round alright though the stomach was making some interesting noises towards the end. My right heel though is definitely beginning to blister when I've got my ortho's in. It could just be a case of a different contact point with the foot moving slightly differently. I've a couple more 3 and 4 mile runs planned next week before I step up to 6 miles, something to keep an eye (plaster and vaseline) on
oh almost forgot the mandatory table

I can't remember - I think these are custom orthos?
In which case you should take them back for adjustment if they are giving blisters.
but good run all the same.
