Reading Half Marathon – look out for #2859 (somewhere at the back)
In Uncategorized | no comments yet | permalink
This time next Sunday, I’ll wallowing in the afterglow of putting a personal best at the Reading Half Marathon. Yeah right! The reality will be very different. Jo’s stuffed her ankle up, so has pulled out, and the reason for my piss poor preparation can be seen in this picture (and I’m not referring to the cup of tea).
BUT, on the plus side, I did manage a couple of mid-week runs in this week and ran 8.5 miles in an acceptable time yesterday (although it did hurt and I was almost sick at one point, but I blame the big breakfast 30 minutes earlier), so there is a ray of hope that I’ll complete it without being an entire embarrassment. Only time will tell.
