Thanjk you.

Did the Bristol 10k at the weekend with practically no 'proper' training - ie I'd been doing a few 3 mile runs in the weeks leading up to it, rather than a full on training programme with 3 or 4 runs a week and a race-distance run a few weeks beforehand.
What surprised me most is that I appear to have managed a similar result and the pain was no more or less than in previous races.
Don't think I'll be taking the same risk with the half marathon in September however - training for that starts the end of this month :-(
Bang on 1:30 - not bad for a trail half, not sure i could have pushed it much more but i do really rate it. The good bag was insane. Milk shakes, green tea, coconut water, nut bars, protein bars, curly wurlys!! Not a leaflet in site either!!
Coming back from injury number 564 in the last year (snowboarding this time so I suppose I begrudgingly have to take some responsibility for it) and have started putting a couple of miles in. Tough, tough going. And getting back in a routine is just as hard as the actually running bit of it. Need start showing some dedication!
A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.

That sucks, hope you're running soon! You got anything in the diary to aim for?
