Hey there,
It's been a while so just checking in. A few stressful months at work plus (or perhaps because of!) some bad sleep (kids...) means I haven't been doing anything very structured although have been keeping the miles going.
Tested myself last weekend with a pretty hard (but even) 10k on the road and was pleasantly surprised with a 34:00 flat so there is something in the tank. I'm hoping with 6 weeks to go I can still get myself in good shape for the London Marathon. Weight is close to 80kg's so even just losing some of that will hopefully yield some positive results!
10 miles tempo today (59:30 feeling good) and plan my first 35k long run of the year tomorrow. Will kick off a 2k cycle (although nothing crazy, I'll follow your advice from last time) on Thursday and keep you posted.
Hope all is well with you and the family.
Jamie
