Anyone doing Great Birmingham run on Sunday?
My daughter is running it tomorrow for Cancer Research. I am so proud of her. She has done 12 miles and I trust the crowd will take her the extra mile.....
2:06:45, which was miles slower than last year! Age is catching me up! Thought it was warmer today than usual.
I ran 1:51 today (1:46 last year). A great day and good PR for Birmingham. Just watched the highlights back on Channel 5 who did a great job with their coverage.

It didn't help that my hamstring decided to start being an awkward sod after about ten miles. I've obviously overdone the biscuits in the last 12 months as well.
If you can't motivate yourself to get out of bed try going for a run when you first get home from work, before you eat.
