Goals and Goals

As the contest draws to a close, I thought that I should really try and find my password so I could post over here again

What’s been going on with me for the last few weeks?  Firstly, just over 2 weeks ago, I managed to do a 10 mile run, in only 84:30, which is absolutely, fantastically well inside my goal time of 2 hours for the national 1/2 marathon tomorrow.   Slightly under 2 weeks ago my left calf went again while playing soccer.  Since then I’ve not run, or played soccer.  I can feel slight twinges every now and again, but the real acid test is going to be tomorrow.  Will it hold?

I hope that it will, also because I’ve now signed up for 2 soccer leagues, an 8 a side on Saturdays, and a 7 a side on Tuesdays, and somewhere towards the end of the season I also have to do the Marine Corps 1/2 marathon…  It’s going to be a busy spring for me, and one in which I doubt I’ll be gaining any of the 10 or so pounds that I’ll have lost over the course of this contest.

Congratulations to the eventual winner, which looks like being either Scottie or David (unless a dark horse rears up on Monday).
