The day before our first Marathon Training school with Mick Brearley - no fear of cancellation this time as the weather has continued to improve ten fold. We decided on Monday that we would do a steady run to Saltaire roundabout, along Bingley Road then back down to Fox's Corner lights and back along Leeds Road tonight - just over 8 miles.... I have wondered more than once in the last couple of weeks if I can actually stick to a training plan or run a marathon, I'm finding it terribly difficult despite reading the plan over and over again. I'm so looking forward to speaking with Mick tomorrow night and hope that I can alleviate some of my worries. My plan is to write down all I have done in the last 2 weeks and compare it to the training plan and then obtain his views and guidance on it. My biggest obstacle, I think, is that I don't want to run alone, therefore, this means that you decide as a group what to do and then whether it is anything like what is on the plan or not we do it! Hopefully that will all change after this evening.
So ahead of me this week I have training school Thursday, club night Friday and the Brass Monkey Half Marathon on Sunday (not in the training plan!)
I have finally decided that running a marathon deserves a purpose! So today, I have emailed my ENT Surgeon Chris Raine at B R I and offered to raise sponsorship for the Ear Trust/'Listening For Life Centre' as yet I haven't heard back from him. I'm hoping this will spur me on.....
