There have been various issues with training over the last few months, the latest of which being that I've had a cold for the past week, which has meant that I can't get out and run (yes, when your head's pounding from coughing so hard, you don't feel like lacing up the running shoes...). Hopefully this situation will be remedied by tomorrow, when I am determined to get out there and get some decent training under my belt (or under my Camelbak).
There has been a creeping realisation that the Leeds Half Marathon is approaching, which has been scaring me witless, but yesterday my pack, including my number and my timing chip, arrived. 3 weeks to get to half marathon fitness? I'm not sure I can make it. I think some serious training planning is in order. I am happy that (touch wood, and despite a cold), my general level of fitness is ok. It doesn't really help that the last route I took when out running by myself was extremely ill-advised, and nearly made me collapse with exhaustion. Ho hum! It's time to get into the right mindset and get this show on the road!
