….. until the 2010 London Marathon, according to the countdown on the DailyMile Race page I have set up to remind me of this fact. If you are on DailyMile and running the London Marathon 2010 then add yourself to this page and we can motivate each other. If you are not on DailyMile, sign up now - it is a very easy way to share your training efforts with the world.
My first run of the year was on New Year’s Day – a brisk(ish) 3 miler to get the ball rolling. Unfortunately it also caused my ITB to play up – I haven’t really run since the St Neots Half Marathon when I strained the ITB on my left leg due to the camber of the 13.1 miles of country roads I hauled myself around. Since yesterday I have been stretching it out , icing it every two hours and trying to look after it in the hope that it will clear up pretty quickly. If not, my plan of mixing alot of cross training into my marathon training will turn into alot of non-running training – I have already blown the cobwebs off the Concept2 rowing machine I have in my garage courtesy of a neighbour that emigrated last year – it may see alot more action in the next few weeks!
Keep your fingers crossed for me that it heals quickly!
