The other day I was on about Nottingham having a separate
Marathon and Birmingham have just announced that they will have one next year
for the first time since 1985. It will be a separate race albeit on the same
day as the existing half but in the morning with the half moving to the
afternoon. It is being organised by Great Run as part of their new British Marathon Series
which will see two other new UK marathons created. Could be a good one for my marathon début.
There’s always one of us in for physio, today its L’s turn.
She been told not to run before the 12th May which is when her next appointment
is. So, at her request, I charge her bike lights. This implies that she might be cycling and I guess needs must. What with Beat the
Streets and all that. She does like a challenge.
There is no squash this week as there are no courts
available. So I go to the gym instead. The velodrome now has a row of Watt
Bikes outside the gym facing the track. So now you can watch the track cycling as
you pedal statically but unfortunately now you have your back to the girls on
the treadmills so you can’t watch them. Suppose you can’t have everything.
Yesterday was my birthday, today is MD's. He gets offered
sausages, I didn’t. Not that I wanted some but it’s nice to be asked. In any case, I’m sure
MD would have preferred to have a Chinese takeaway delivered. he likes the whole ambience of the evening. A bit of football,
a bark at the delivery man, prawn crackers etc but we disappoint him by not
ordering out.
