Wow, that is forward planning - already pencilling in London 2050! You are very organised.

Anyway, the medium-sized news is that I've just sent off my application for London 2007. Of course the ramifications could be huge, but for now the news is only medium-sized. The possible scenarios are:

1. I don't get in, and by then I think training for marathon is a bad idea right now. Plan of action - stay on the sofa and open another beer.

2. I do get in, but by then I think training for marathon is a bad idea right now. Plan of action - defer till 2008, ditto on the sofa / beer front.

3. I don't get in, but by then I'm still up for it. Plan of action - get a golden bond place and start sending out those begging sponsorship emails.

4. I do get in, and by then I'm still up for it. Plan of action - obvious really. Plus I can run for any charity I like.

Either way, I'm not rushing into any training straight away... will do my best to get Henley and Marlow halfs on the calendar to kick start me. I (hypothetically at this stage of course) will probably do the Hal Higdon beginner's schedule, as I won't have time for anything more advanced - although I might start a month early and then fit in a few more long 'uns before the race. Anyway, that's all a long way off...
