A big shout out to Mulbs and Wazelle whose marathons have been postponed due to Covid19 - I will update the column when I am next on the computer.

Hi all, hope you are all keeping well in these scary times. I am into week 3 of a cold that has wiped me out. It’s mostly gone but I am just knackered and struggling to get back running. Annoying as my training was going great up to that point. My marathon - Windermere in May could also get cancelled and I know the organisers will do what they need to with everyone’s interests at heart. We still have our holiday booked for marathon week there so we will still go and enjoy the Lakes scenery all being well. Stay safe lovely people, and keep smiling any way you can x

Afternoon folks, hope everyone is staying safe.
I have been off on holiday this week but will be back to work tomorrow. It was bonkers before I left so no idea how it was this week.

My April and May races have definitely been cancelled and only Aug still booked at the moment.

I wish I was more like Hippo, but even if I try really hard, I don't think I can do the Strictly Running trail marathon (was supposed to be Toks' 100th marathon) on 13th September and then rescheduled Brighton on 20th, a week later.....or is it possible? Am I being defeatist?

Hard one Wazelle - I know my body couldn’t cope with it. I suppose it depends what you want out of Brighton and how well you recover from a trail event. Good luck in whatever you choose to do 🍀

I remember Toks doing her 10 in 10 at Brathay - I was glued to the computer each day. Will have to check out this date and event to see if I can pop along to shout her on in person this time.
