Worst. Run Ever.

Went out towards Rottingdean, new route. Will be part of the marathon route so wanted to try it. Plan was to run for at least 2 hours, 10miles +.

1) The bag. Decided to take a bag with me with water, gel, money etc. in it. Bad idea. Didn't work, kept water bottle kept banging my elbows but didn't feel comfortable carrying it. Had to dump the water. Kept fiddling with the bag to try and make it better so lots of stop starting. Lots of people on the seafront who were in the way too.

2) The nose. Very windy and my nose was running badly, ran out of tissues far too soon so very uncomfortable.

3) The knee. Here's the major bad thing. About 3 miles in my left knee starts hurting. So I stretch it and run on. Do that three times, and then I realise I can't run anymore. I have to walk back and get the bus (thank god I had money on me for the first time), and by the time I get home it hurts to walk, and I can't put weight on my bent knee (which means stairs aren't fun).

Not good at all...
