New Year, New Rules
changing things up for Manchester.
7000 Miles
Last night I ran through 7000 miles, this has consisted of 28 marathons and 17 ultras to date, I'm not sure of the total number of races, I check my race record.

tomorrow is the first day of May, that means Comrades is here, waiting for us, ready to teach us lessons we need to learn, showing us what we can be, ready to crush us or carry us along the road from Durban to Pietermaritzburg. on the 31st May at 05:30 alongside approximately 18,000 runners I will set off from the town hall in Durban on route to PMB. the journey began many, many months ago or even years ago, a thought, a dream, a comment from a friend about this famous race legendary for both its distance and cutoffs. but before we get there we must qualify...
Manchester Marathon
So I went and I ran. my earlier plans to run sub 4 got derailed earlier in the year, but this was still a good run a great confidence booster on route to Comrades. Finished 4:45.59 my fastest marathon for a while. Meat for dinner the night before. 2 boiled eggs and a piece of bacon for breakfast 1.5 to 2 hours before race, half a banana about 30 mins before the gun. The route was farliy interesting, quite a few out and backs it seemed but some great course support.
