RE: SOS!
Great attitude and plan. I'm at a similar stage, and in a similar frame of mind. Not sure about you, but it's the final, trifling line on the checklist -- the one that seems to be written much smaller and feinter than the other items -- that gives me the most trouble. What does it say? Ah yes, I can read it now -- "Actually do the above". Sometimes there is very good justification, and sometimes there aint.
We both have extra motivation at the moment. Me in a new environment, you with the PtoP and esteemed Sussex guests to entertain.
Anyway, I'm with you on the May half marathon target.
My 12 week training starts 'officially' the week after next but I'll be spending the next 10 days trying to get fit enough to at least give the training a decent start. It means some kind of running every other day, and getting that gym form filled in. It also means finding my Garmin and iPod, both still hidden deep in some removal box somewhere. But they are the sort of silly excuses I need to sweep aside.
Spring is coming.
Let's run.
Good luck.
