I'm sure you could manage the 2OM, if you had as good a winter's training as me and Sweder.

It was all down to application, doggedly sticking to that one long run a week -despite what else you did or didn't do. I personally really look forward to it.
It is so out of context to normal daily drudgery.
Sharing it with others, the camaraderie, the chance to forget all my petty worries, lose myself.
Nothing in my life comes close to the toughness, discipline required.

Anyway, enough of me harping on.

Hope you have a great trip - get your running boots on for TOM 2008 Big Grin

Wise words, and spoken like a true evangelist.

You're right - I shouldn't write it off. That's very negative of me. I suppose I'm trying to draw a balance between setting good targets that will stretch me, but avoiding making silly promises that only put unnecessary pressure on me. Knowing your limits is important. But you're right -- it's all about preparation.

As for 2008, I may just have another plan that I'll reveal soon.

It would be good if you could make it to Dorney (http://www.runningcommentary.co.uk/forum...st&t=1329).
