Looks like you might be in a position to enjoy Reading, which is a fantastic result given what's gone before. I look forward to hearing about your 21 miles - I guess the gym work will have paid off fitness-wise, but your joints must have been unused to such a pounding.

It's a good job that neither of us is superstitious, or you might just have put the mockers on things there. But we laugh at such weak thinking, don't we?
