Training is going well, and so is my recovery. It's all down to cutting back for a bit and starting the mileage increase later ready for Mumbai marathon in late January (21st).
Quite keen to run the 2nd West Yorks XC league over at Leeds Bodington Hall. I won my Yorkshire XC title there back in 2001. Nice undulating circuit with plenty of mud to plough through. Hoping for a good hard race and team support on that one.
The 3rd and last race day's of the WYXC have a race running for Idle AC in the morning. I probably am putting the WYXC at risk? If I do the Winter League XC for Idle, I will run at tempo with who ever is leading. They are not as demanding as the WYXC races, so I hope my plan works.
Dan Simmons has had to pull out of the Greatest Race on Earth marathon series. He was due to race Nairobi marathon at the end of October, but has acute tonsillitis. Poor lad is gutted not to run. Not sure what's going to happen, but hopefully it will be sorted very soon.
