One for the future

January 17th, 2010

Just come across David Tittle’s blog post on Week 8 – Not the Coventry Way . It’s part of his blog on completing the the ‘A Coventry Way Challenge‘ which is a 40 mile challenge. I came across this challenge a few years back but unfortunately i’ve had bad timing in terms of other races being on at the same time – that and i’d want to run in and needed to build up to it a bit first.

Definitely one i’d like to do in the future!

Aspirations for the New Year 2010

January 1st, 2010

Firstly, Happy New Year to you!

As another year passes I wanted to make a few notes of what I want to do in 2010. I’m not going to do a look back at 2009 but just a look forward to what I hope 2010 will bring. These aren’t resolutions -  just a list of things that I want to refer back to and to gauge how my year is going – purely related to running and fitness. Staying healthy and fit will be my main goal, but i’d also like to:

  • go sub 20 minute 5k,
  • go sub 40 minute 10k,
  • go sub 4 hour marathon,
  • start swimming regularly,
  • start cycling regularly,
  • volunteer in more races/events,
  • introduce more people to running

I’m also hoping to blog more regularly which is something that i’ve been a bit remiss in lately.
