It's been an up and down year, two steps forwards one back with the M.E. Over the summer I did the Race For Life 10k at Coombe Abbey which went well, I was quicker than I'd ever been before, despite a thunderstorm and torrential rain! In August I did the Rugby Sprint Triathlon which I completed Ok but wasn't really that well. As I'm a member of the club I also helped out, which was good fun.
In September I did my first Park Run at Coventry which I really enjoyed, I've also volunteered twice since. And so to the worst time......travelled up to Durham the night before the Great North Run, I was feeling pretty well with the M.E. so rather happy with myself. Checked into accommodation, looking for my room fell off a step and did my ankle in. No GNR for me, so I was rather upset....inconsolable in fact. I am still recovering from it (mentally and physically( so feel I've lost the fitness level I've worked so hard to gain. Ah well, there's worse things to have.....
Looking to next year, I have a few races planned starting with the Silverstone Half Marathon on the 6th March which should keep me motivated and training over winter. Also a few triathlons I'm considering, the jury is out on which just yet!
Onwards and upwards :)
