One small step for man...
Hello people in Running Land. Haven't posted for a while (and when I did I managed to post in a completely different blog. I can be completely useless sometimes). Anyway, I hope you're all good, training is going well, and the fact that the marathon is about 11 or so weeks again isn't scaring the bejesus out of you. It is me!
Training is going pretty well for me. I am sticking almost religiously to my training plan and I think it's paying off. Ok, so 26 miles is still a chuffing long way but you know what, I actually look forward to the long runs on a Sunday! Is this suppose to happen? I'm not quite addicted to running yet but I think I'm heading down that slippery slope. I take far too much intrest in running gear now as well.
Yesterday I did a 10K race and it felt ok. Did it in about 52 minutes and narrowly pipped on the line by about 300 other runners (and about 20 minutes!) but it was a good run. I have a half marathon at the beginning of March whih I'm a bit more apprehensive about but a few more weeks to build up some more mileage.
Anyway, I'll keep this short and promise to post back again soon. Enjoy your runs this week (unless they are the result of a bad curry).

daveredrock 'Good to hear that you're on track. The 26th April is like a gigantic cloud looming off in the distance yet hurtling in our direction. There is nothing we can do to stop it. In reality though I'm sure we will wonder what we were so nervous about as our fleeting moment as heroes becomes the stand out memory the cloud will be pretty much forgotten. Keep those knees up.
