Weekly summary - 2 weeks to go

2 weeks to go! (13 days as I write this!)

I've written about the Totton 10k, but another highlight was our club handicap race on Thursday. I ran it at tempo pace - 7:20-7:30 although slower due to the foot bridges and gates, in other words fairly comfortable. Even so I still got within a second of my PB and over-40 club record (which I'm fairly sure Gina will have beaten!).

I'm running so well! My preparation for Boston couldn't be better. Best marathon prep yet!
