I've been cross training to try and keep some residual fitness, but with every passing day it looks like pushing back to a spring marathon is more and more likely. Trust me to get injured the nicest time of the year to be outside running.
That's rubbish pal.
I'm on holiday next week, so planning on taking my runners to just keep myself ticking over. Not managed a 10k this month at all which is a bit disappointing but life has just got in the way.
It absolutely is rubbish and my wife will attest to the fact it makes me even more of a grumpy prick than normal.
A spring (potentially Seville) marathon wouldn't be the end of the world, but really frustrating to spend 6 months flying and fit as ever only to break down when the really serious work was due to start having got myself in the shape to have a genuine crack at a Boston qualifying time. C'est la via, I suppose.
