Having run my first marathon in April 2007 I am desperate to do it again. This is partly because I didn't get the experience I hoped for, because of my injuries I took forever to complete it - 7 hours 39 mins and 37 seconds. Throughout training I had problems with my ITB which luckily since then has almost gone, but been replaced by other injuries namely heel problems which have meant that I have not run since October 2008. Had orthotics made in Feb 2009 which are helping and I am determined to get back into it. I wont be fit enough for 2010 but hopefully 2011 will be my year. I have bowed to pressure and decided not to move my blog so I am still here. I have got a ballot place in the Great North Run for September 2010 which I can't wait for.
I have set myself some targets which will help me keep motivated and will mean that in 2010 I will achieve my goal of completing the marathon in under 6 hours:
Races -
Great North Run - 2010 (would love to beat previous half marathon time of 3hr 6 mins- very flat Blackpool course and complete it in uner 2hr 45mins)
Virgin London Marathon - April 2011

Went round to my mums and stripped wallpaper. Absolutely knackered now. Off to watch Sarah Jane Adventures with the kids. At least it will stop them singing fame (went to cinema yesterday to see fame - don't tell anyone but I really enjoyed it!)
