This time last year I was getting some serious running mileage in as I contemplated doing something a bit different (for me) such as an ultra. It ll came crashing down late Feb when my hamstrings decided to give up and slow me down for the next 10 months, but I feel I have about caught back up to where I was. Managed a 15 miler yesterday which was mainly off road so considerably more difficult than a road only version.
I did manage to hobble round the Rotherham 50 miler in early Autumn, albeit mainly walking and I'm contemplating trying this again this year. Not that I'll manage to run it all, but at least I have a target to beat.
First, I have to negotiate the Belvoir Challenge in 3 weeks time. This is a 26 mile off roader that is notoriously muddy, but hopefully quite enjoyable.
Watch this space.
