Just becase the blogging's slowed, doesn't mean the running has!

I have been training, and I have been doing well, even with a 3 week setback of a ruptured hamstring from almost-but-not-quite falling over into the horrid mud on Hampstead Heath.

Yesterday I broke the 10 mile barrier. I always feel better after running a 10 miler, because now I know that I can do 10 miles, then that means I'll probably manage to do 15 ok. Then when I can run 15 I'll be pretty much able to run 20 and I know I can walk 10k so there's the marathon cracked!

At the moment I don't have a great hope of finishing in any respectable time, but ya know what? As long as I do my very best and train as hard and as sensibly as I can, then I will be proud no matter what.
