May. No... will.
As hoped, I managed an hour around Center Parcs, to kick off some semblance of preparation for a half marathon in 4 weeks time. Tragically, this was the longest I’d run since the Marlow half back in November.

So mentally it was a bit of an undertaking. As recently documented by Guru MLCMan, within a few minutes daily cares had slipped from my mind, and my focus was on self. Self-centred. Self-absorbed. Is this a good philosophy? Only in moderation.

Anyway, it was accomplished quite satisfactorily. The mental side was dealt with by breaking the run into tenths and checking progress on the watch, On the physical side, hammies made their presence felt after a while, but not in a bad way. Hips and back, which have given some cause for concern recently, were fine. Next day I welcomed the stiff joints like old friends.

Speaking of old friends: thanks for the positive comments, chaps!
