Valencia marathon tomorrow, have been wiped out for two weeks with a virus and not been able to run, have done three runs in Valencia and not felt great at all, gutted as I have been building up to this all year as a sub3 attempt, will run tomorrow and hopefully make it round

Good luck tomorrow mate. If nothing else the pressure is off a bit so just make sure you enjoy it.

Trail half tomorrow. Nice and easy and then we go again next year.

All the Parkruns I normally frequent in Manchester were cancelled this morning because of a slight breeze, so I did a training run around Castlefield involving 4 laps of the Science & Industry Museum and Factory International.
On lap 1 I passed Kevin Sinfield and his entourage on the Media City to Saddleworth leg of his ultra marathon challenge for MND.
I gave him a wave and a cheer & made sure I donated to his charity on my return.

This morning's Stretford Parkrun completed in 29:05, which was a course PB beating my previous best attempt by over a minute.
For those who need to know, both goats were "on shed", but one poked it's head out on lap 1.
