Let the taper begin

Madam, her friend and I set off to Miniature Pony World today in Dartmoor.

The journey which is less than an hour was eventful with her friend being car sick in to my SAT NAV box! Not a great start to the day.

Saw this mini miniature pony just born on 4th April very cute.

Saw this beauty (Typical man showing off!)

My favourite was this though  soft and dozey.

The journey home was eventful too as met a car on a very narrow Devon lane coming in the opposite direction, it was tricky passing each other and I felt bad for the occupants of the other car who greeted me with ‘Is this a road?’ to which I replied ‘Welcome to Devon’, at a guess they were North Americans and had never experienced a highway like it!

Tonight’s run was a tempo 4 miles or so the plan said, I went out in the rain, this turned to sun and a nice evening and I even managed negative splits, that is my last hard session before the marathon so really in to Taper Time now, hooray.
