Never Again?
Well, that was a marathon then. Not outrageously difficult, but possibly worthy of slightly more respect that I gave it beforehand. I'm a bit undecided about whether I'll do another one, part of me is of the "whats the point its quite hard work and I know I can do it" school, but I am also a bit peeved at the time I ran. I'm pretty sure I was in good enough shape to run sub 4 hours and possibly even 3:45 it was just poorly executed. Todays completely unnecessary hint is "when running further than you ever have before - a personal best at 10 miles and 15 miles may not be the smartest tactics".

Paris Marathon - Tick
Okay, that didn't go quite as planned - first half was very quick - second half was very slow - perhaps the two things are related. Still, job done and 4:15 qualifies as an RB cos I haven't run that far since I was 20.
Feeling Fat
Due to a couple of weeks of relative visits, parties (and as usual a lack of motivation) I have managed to arrive at the week of the marathon in what feels like the worst shape I have been in for about six months. Did about 15 miles last week and the week before and today I really struggled trying to run a quickish time for 5 miles - still looking good for the 1000 miles this year though.
