Yo kids it's November - or Movember  Time for the best race of the year (cough cough) The Autumn Challenge - 5 miles of park and woodland trail in the non concrete heart of Watford. Dead easy to get to. Nice run, little mud to be fair, a few nice climbs and descents - deer, foxes, owls and red faced Joggers to be seen in amongst the trees. Only £8.00. defo useful for anyone who wants a easy XC experience - trail lite! watfordjoggers.org.uk Plus its the day before my birthday and I am going the pub afterwards! Invite to all ! I might even wear my scarily short red shorts. Fetch thing - http://www.fetcheveryone.com/viewracedetails.php?id=52068 |

oh alright then . . it's 2 years since I ran any event that was further than 5k . . so this is a big step up! little bit perturbed that having entered less than 2 weeks before the race I'm number 28 but no doubt there'll be a late rush of runners wanting to fill the rather large gap between me and the winner

just to show that I'm taking this event seriously, I trained last night and am now tapering in readiness . . I may even beat the tumbleweed

I have placed a bet on Rich getting a bottom 10 finish Before taper I suggest you run up and down the stairs a bit first then you'll have max fitness |
