6 Stars and London sub 4
Life goes through lots of ups and downs. Chapters. The ups are great, the downs just batter you and stops you in our tracks.
But like running we just need time to figure out how to work through the down bits and then come through and kick on again. The test is always how we handle the downs because the ups are easy.
Each person deals with it differently and takes it in their own time. So, this is me back again. The goal still not achieved but the desire still as strong.
The goals are simple: -
1. Sub 4 at London. No where else. Only at London. I owe it to her.
2. World Majors 6 Star medal to include Athens. London and Berlin done.
Now a call to the 'old guards' for help to continue my journey......

I still have 3 years before I'm 50 and the chances of doing it by then is slim if Covids got anything to do with it. But we'll see.

No matter how far I stray I would always find my way home. And so here I am once more. Hi Buzzer it's been awhile. I've missed you.
Chicago never happened. The deferred ballot place was lost. To go over there would have been the biggest disrespect to ...
So for about a month now it's just been steady miles, 3 miles and never going beyond 6 miles. Been ok getting the mindset right again.
Corr dear the years are not kind though. At 46 it's clearly tougher and having put on another stone at 11 the heart...
