Update!

Well my body seems to be resisting marathon training! As soon as it realises that this is going to happen & just give in & let me train things will be much easier!!! My mind is willing to train everyday but my body is not, must be the old age. Since last update I have been on leave from work, however this resulted in man flu on the first day off so I had no training for a couple of days!!!

Now over my man flu & in the last 5 days I have completed 2 x 12km runs & a strength training gym session plus a 45 min interval run & it now appears I have strained a knee ligament!! I really hope I can still do my long steady run this wkend as I missed out last weekend with flu...............

Hopefully 2010 will bring new found muscles & I can really get into some more mileage, watch this space!
