A fortnight to forget really, but things were starting to come together. I just hope my first illness in well over a year isn't as a result of overdoing it.
I feel tired as I write this, with the prospect of the Southern Veteran Cross Country Championships tomorrow, followed by my first long run in a month the day after. I hope I'm OK.
London seems very close, and my training is way off track. Hopefully a more positive outlook next week.
