My running buddy Joe is back from his Mediterranean Christmas cruise, so we did our usual 4.3 mile Wednesday evening run, followed by our usual couple of beers down the local, where we ignored Arsenal v Man City and had a think about upcoming races.
Joe was convinced that it would be a slow run due to the difficulties of training on board and the food and booze consumed, but our time was actually quite favourably comparable with recent performances on the same route. Consequently, I think we're both feeling optimistic about racing this weekend, enough to consider two races on consecutive days!
My race schedule now looks like this:
Sat 8th Jan: Cannon Hill parkrun #19 I was thinking of marshalling, to save myself for Sunday, but we're going to have a go at this as well as:
Sun 9th Jan: Centurion GP 5 - Race 3.
Sun16th Jan: Not the Roman IX.
Sat 22nd Jan: Leeds parkrun #171 (depending on family duties).
Sat 5th Feb: Coventry parkrun #52 and/or:
Sun 6th Feb Centurion GP 5 - Race 4.
Sun 27th Feb: Action Heart RC 5 Miles (Dudley).
Sun 6th Mar: Centurion GP 5 - Race 5.
Sun 13th Mar: Fradley 10km.
I had another email from one of my club mates, and drafted a response in which I admitted that I'm considering leaving. I haven't sent it yet!
