Hello....
I have been to Berlin many times, sadly never to run the marathon.
Was there just 2 months before the wall came down, and again 6 months afterwards - with hindsight, a very moving experience. It is a truly superb city, and if you ever get the opportunity to go, you won't be disappointed I can promise you that!
I'm now as ready as I'll ever be to run Dublin on monday, staying until wed for the compulsory rehydration procedure. Hope hope to get around to a 'race' report and if so,I'll put it here.
A quick word about watches, I never run with one. At my level I cannot see the point; I have a certain distance to run, and so much depends on the weather, how I'm feeling, whether I go off too fast (a phenomenon I never seem able to recover from) etc. As Andy says his log, whether the run is x mins/secs longer than last time is irrelevent - well to me it anyway.
Off to admire the idiots doing the Beachy Head marathon this morning - that'll help the focus!!
Andy.
