Gooood! Well ahead of median.

Zero zapped.

This (hopeful) marks the start of my wind-up to the Rotorua marathon in April.

Trading plan: Monday long run, Wednesday and Friday are short runs (tempo and all that). I'll keep pushing out my long run by about 1Km per week. At 16 weeks out from Rotorua, I'll switch to the FIRST schedule.

All this is dependent on an Ok from the sports doc.

    Yay! Nice to see you thinking about marathon training again - you've been very patient and "good" at getting your injuries right!

    Nicely done! I did have Rotorua in my sights... But 42.2 is just not my distance so I've got my eye on other shorter races

    I think you're doing the right think Kim (for what it's worth). But I'll miss the chance to run with your again.

    There's always other races! My support crew from Auckland for the last two years already think I'm doing it again next year....

    I'll be one of those people that manages to get to 10 different spots on the course with a crazy sign!
