I have been trying to write this since the first day of the year but with the way things are at the moment I have been finding it difficult.
It is hard to make plans when you don’t know what is going to happen in the world in the next couple of weeks never mind for the rest of the year.
Based on this my main goal for the year is going to try and run consistently for the year and keep getting out.
I always feel better after a run so continuing to do so will hopefully help me to stay in a good frame of mind.
If things do start to get back to normal then I have 1 big race goal for the year. I want to go under 3 hours for the marathon.
I currently have two races booked to try and do this. A small one at the end of March and then one I have already been looking forward to for over a year. I have a charity place in the Berlin Marathon.
This is a place that has rolled over from the 2020 cancelled race and I was really disappointed when it was cancelled (even though I know it was the correct decision).
Should racing start up again I am sure that I will come up with some more goals but for now I will be concentrating on this one big one.
