So there's been some pretty serious radio-silence on the blog the last few weeks: partly through lack of blogging although I do also have to admit the running has gone somewhat down the pan recently thanks to blasting my PhD every day I possibly can. Full of terrible excuses I know, but it's meant I'm going to be approaching the Wilmslow Half Marathon tomorrow rather more rested than I intended!
However, I guess I can but give it my best shot, pace myself, and aim to get around without pulling a muscle or walking too much (like the last 3 miles of Haweswater). VLM has seemed such a long way off for so long, and it's been rather too easy to rely on the fitness I built up over the weeks of training prior to starting the actual marathon training, so I'm guessing tomorrow is going to be somewhat of a sharp shock!
Spent most of the morning putting race bags together (felt it was the least I could do after all the effort the organisers have put in to actually get me into the race) - and I do rather want to earn my first medal!
Wish me luck ...
