Slipped in a 9.8 kilometer shuffle this morning. It's hardly worthy of note but it makes me feel better to write something here rather than not, so here it is.

On a more positive note I'm one of only a handful (or so it seems) of people to bag 2012 tickets so far. I got what I asked for, namely the evening session in the Olympic Stadium on 4th August. That get's me ringside for

- Women's 100 metres semi-finals and final
- Men's longjump final
- Heptathlon final 2 disciplines (ending with the 800 metres and hopefully Gold for Jessica Ennis)
- Men's 10,000 metres final

I have to say I'm unreasonably excited about this. Unreasonably because there's around 57 weeks to go which in anyone's calendar is a long old time to be excited about/ waiting for something to come around.

I appreciate that pales into insignificance offered up against the 300-odd weeks Gooners have waited for a trophy, but still.
