Sunday 8th March was the Surrey Half Marathon. Had it of been Saturday 7th March I’m not sure that I would have made the start line as my cold broke out and I felt rubbish. But Sunday morning I was surprisingly ok and I gave it my best shot. It was not a personal best time but at 1.44.03 I had to be pleased as due to my cold and late entry, meaning not as much training as I would have liked, that was either my second or third best time for a half marathon.

To keep up the momentum and motivation I need to set myself some new challenges. I have entered the Tough Mudder in May, although I fear that this is likely to be cancelled due to Corona Virus (more on that shortly) and I will enter the Weybridge 10k in the hunt for a pb if that race goes ahead in June. I also have a challenge that I can do at home which I will share at a later date.

So keep setting yourself goals to give you the motivation and purpose to stick with your training. Good luck with which ever goals you choose to go for!
