Well it's about time I owned up...

I'm yet again out of the marathon
. After contracting a virus after Tough Guy which lasted 3 weeks, I started training only to be scuppered by an old injury coming back to haunt me. So I've done the sensible thing and completely backed off. I can't run without pain anyway.
I'm still hoping I've got enough time to be ready for my Ironman in the summer if I can get cycling again soon. It's taken me quite a while to come to terms with my failing body, but I'm a stubborn git so I'll keep going until my body says otherwise.
So on the positive side I can still swim, and I'm doing a lot of gym work with a great personal trainer whose currently giving me weekly beastings. Wifey is still in the marathon so I'm putting all my efforts to helping her out.
Onwards and upwards....
