I am considering Manchester but more thinking I might wait until autumn and consider York.

But, but, 18 week training plan starts on Monday, by the time January comes around I'll be 5 weeks in 😂

Baz, in case you're not following the MCR thread, Nelly reminded us today that price goes up by £10 after Tuesday, so decision to be made by then

Thanks Gus. That’s not a thread I follow. I actually thought they had closed entries. Maybe reopened. Think I have decided no spring marathon and just build back up.

Happy to get my first 20:xx post returning to parkruns this morning. Windy, but that might have actually been in my favour on this course today, but I'll pretend it was just sheer good running ;-)

Finding I'm naturally running to a progressive pace at parkruns at the moment, probably still feeling cautious about fitness and right leg, bit that does tend to make for a satisfying experience.

Still shorts and t shirt weather too :-)
