So, the East Neuk 10kEast Neuk 10k race has been entered.
11 weeks and a few days out, so plenty time to get some miles into the legs.
A gentle lunchtime session at the gym beckons with the cross-trainer for 15 mins. It's pretty good exercise and minimal impact, followed by 10mins on the treadmill at an easy 10kmh.
25 mins cardio is a reasonable aim for today I think.

-------
15 mins level 9 Random on the X-trainer - 3km & 221 Cal
10 mins @ 10Kmh incline 0.5% - 1.77km & 175 Cal
396 Calories. Hmm! I always get confused about Calories and KiloCalories.
Apparently there's about 280 Calories in a Mars bar, so I'm going to go with those results being about the same scale.
Interesting though that they think the treadmill is a bigger burner than the X-trainer.
Anyway, good to set a goal and achieve it. Must remember not to reward myself with a biscuit though!
