Update

I haven’t posted for a while not because I have been in a Neil Young induced rapture but because I haven’t had anything much to say. Now I know this is a big failing when one is  a blogger. I should have an opinion on everything and just write it and publish it . But I have always been of the view that you should keep your mouth shut unless you've got something useful to say. Which probably explains a lot about my life.

 

Me and the wife were at Gateshead Stadium to see the European Team Athletics. Mo Farrah's last lap run in the 5000m was amazing and I completed the Gateshead BUPA 10k in 57:45. Not world record time but almost 6 minute faster than last year.

 

My marathon training is going well, you will often find me plotting routes on runningmap.com  ( one of the many free route planning websites out there).Its 13 weeks to Berlin and I can already feel the buzz of excitement inside me.

  

And that's it really. A normal life I suppose.
