So my quest begins - I have emailed all my running club colleagues to tell them that I plan to qualify for Boston and that the quest will begin with the Berlin Marathon - so there is no going back!
I woke this morning (5:45) and ran about 6 miles (I need to measure it) from Uppingham School towards Stoke Dry and through Lyddington back. The best part about the run (other than running with my friend Schneider - who was rather quiet for the first two miles), is a long down hill into Lyddington, where you can let yourself go! It was warm and sunny.
I next plan to run tomorrow evening
This is a blog focussed on running. It represents a commitment I made whilst watching a friend run Boston Marathon on April 21, to be on the starting line in 12 months time. I am not new to running having run four marathons in the last five years, with a personal record of 3 hours 44 minutes. But, to achieve a place at Boston I need to post a time of 3 hours 30 mins within the next eight months. Most of my training will be done in Rutland, the smallest County in the UK.
