It has been a long time since my last entry and there is alot to catch up on. First the big news, some weeks ago now I decided to enter the marathon in Valencia. I had been thinking about it throughout the summer but I didn't want to enter until I was confident I could do myself justice and, unlike Madrid and London, I could leave getting signed up until close to the day of the race, even now I think you can enter, you can see here http://maratondivinapastoravalencia.com/.
With one week to go I am in a much better state than in the lead up to my previous marathon attempts which were both hampered by injuries. Right now I have some pain in my calves but within a couple of days I'm confident it will have resolved itself, I stupidly tried to make a big change to my running form too quickly, essentially switching from heel-striking to forefoot-striking. Long term it is a change I want to make, its just not the right time now.
I have had two races since my last entry, both were good events for me and both are deserving of having an entry dedicated to them. So after a drought of entries look forward to a glut over the next couple of days.
In the meantime, happy running!
