It's the night before the Wilmslow Half Marathon and although there is snow and driving winds outside (removing three ridge tiles on the roof) it looks as if I am going to have to turn up tomorrow and have a go for a 1.37.00  that I have set myself as a target. The excuses start here!


"Sunday 5.15am  –  the race is definitely on!"

Forget the clear skies and daffodils as I started probably my worst race for years!  The first five miles were fine, averaging seven twenty miles but from then on in the cross winds & sub zero temperatures my enthusiasm just dropped  to zero and I ended up running a 1.45.25. Definitely one race to forget asap, unfortunately the pink finisher's technical T will be a constant reminder for some time to come!
