Born to Run

November has seen me slide into my usual boozy Christmas December with mondo giggage. Right Hand, Left Hand, Beak>> , Penelope Isles, The National have all been great and alcohol soaked. Amongst this sea of drink, friends and bands I’ve kept running, pretty much just spinning the wheels, but now I’ve got an eye on the eternal goal of doing a sub-three hour marathon.

As part of this I’ve once again hooked up with my running coach of yore Mark Whittle, who kept saying it was a ‘cheeky’ target when I mentioned it to him, but you know it’s not worth going for it if it was easy, So as part of this pre-pre marathon preparation I’m once again going to do the Park Run this Saturday. For one reason and another I haven’t done it for agggggges and for once I’m not going for a PB, just a decent pace, and I’m actually looking forward to drying out in January.
