I got up to 24 miles today, at least 2 minutes quicker than the same run before Cardiff, that run was the day after a 10K, but I have 20 miles over the previous two days, so I'm fairly happy.

It all goes wrong now, next weekend is a Sunday cross country race, and the following weekend will be really hard work after the Midlands, I might even settle for 15 that day. The programme after London looks difficult as well, the first Midland track fixture is two weeks after London - I won't really be able to compete, let's hope there are enough 5000m athletes for me not to be needed.

..all in all I'm feeling tired now, I'm fairly sure this is going to be my last marathon for a while.
