Not much spare time!!

So just when we were thinking that spare time was a bit limited, Mr & Mrs ATHelite seem to have entered the 'Challenge Barcelona' next October. This is unfortunately not a Paella eating contest but a full Ironman distance race. (2.4 mile sea swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run).

Whilst we are really looking forward to this, fitting the training in around running the 2 shops could be the real challenge. We are just building our base training at the moment - trying to get a bit of structure & routine into it. Watch this space for further installments on our progress!

As far as racing goes, we are both doing the Strathaven 'Run with the Wind' 10k on the 23rd November (ATHelite is also supporting this event, so see our stall after the race, next to the bar & sweetie stand!).
Mr ATHelite has also decided to enter the Buchlyvie Half Marathon on the 16th November. It has been so long since he did a Half Marathon that his PB is actually in the Trimpell 20 mile road race 2 years ago. Hoping to shave some minutes off that!!
