Re Almeria, I will take the heat off Seafront Plodder and inform you now of my regrettable absence from the 2008 event. Unfortunately it's just completely the wrong time of year for Mrs MLCM and I for a number of reasons and isn't going to happen.
I will however still rise to the challenge and commit to running a sub-2 half that same weekend, even at the same time as yourselves if I can. So I'll be there in spirit and with the same goal.
As for other PBs, well these have been in mind for some time. My 5 and 10km PBs are going to take some getting, as these were set ages ago when I was running much faster than present. But I am feeling a little more confident that it's possible. As for a full marathon, well I'm not even going to think about it until next year.
My main race goal therefore is still the Point to Pinnacle mountain race in November. It's six months away yet but is going to require all that and more of speed and hill training to put in a decent performance. So that's my focus for the rest of the year. There's much to do between now and then, and I begin my serious hill training
manana (rest day today).
