This blog is mainly to help me and Ron (my fabulous coach) keep track of what is going on in my training. Good days. Bad days. Successes and failures. Aches and pains. That sort of thing. But please come visit once in a while to see how we're getting on!

128th in the National - after a fast start

11M incl 12K National Cross-country Champs (128th; 7th Highgate; Team 5th)

Just a quick note... I'm on the plane about to leave for Ethiopia!

The National was another great day. An unbelievable and unrelenting course. 1700 in the men's race. And great support.

Like a number of us in Highgate, my error was to go off too hard. I paid for it, but still came out 44 places higher than last year.

The team came away with 5th. Not far from a medal, and we know it wasn't for lack of commitment.

Hopefully I can build on a good past 2 months in Ethiopia. And hopefully I'll be able to blog from there too...

Can't wait. Even if I'm sad to be leaving home for so long.
