Not long now!!
Just 5 days to go until the Brighton Marathon and I can’t wait.
Ok, so training hasn’t been ideal over the last month but I did a good ten mile run on Sunday with a 7:30 average and have kept ticking over for the last two weeks with several 6k runs, so I am as fit as I can be. Luckily I can combine running with cycling so that has helped me keep good fitness too. And now I can’t wait!
I’m looking forward to the exhibition to pick up my number.
Todays Peas
I’m looking forward to seeing friends in Brighton on Saturday.
I’m desperately excited to meet up with my brother-in-law at the start on Sunday morning.
I can’t wait to finally throw that old t-shirt over the barriers in the start line and get moving.
The thought of seeing my wife & kids and friends & family on my way round is giving me goosebumps.
And the prospect of crossing the finishing line and giving them a cuddle is bringing a tear to my eye.
The thought of being by the side of the course to cheer on my brother-in-law as he finishes nearly tops it all.
And then a beer (or two).
A long drive home (and maybe a snooze).
A glass of red wine and maybe a take-away.
A good nights sleep.
A hobble to school to drop off the kids
And a well earned day off work.
Anyway, it as just a quick entry to share the excitement and one last picture of these peas on my leg before I eat them next week!! Good luck to any marathoners with a few days to go. Remember why you’re doing all this. See you on the other side!
