What to look forward to in 2014?

My 2014 schedule is now pretty much set. Assuming no niggles or injuries here is the plan:

• February - Wokingham Half Marathon
• March - Reading Half Marathon
• April - London Marathon
• May - Free!
• June - Windsor Triathlon
• July - Free!
• August  - Maybe Ride London if I get in the ballot
• September - Free!
• October - Oxford Half Marathon
• November - Free!
• December - Free!

So only leaves me to find something to do in May really that should ideally be bike or swim focussed ready for Windsor.  

Oxford Half Marathon pacing team - and thanks to Garmin

Paced the 2:00:00 group at Oxford this weekend. Massive thanks to Garmin for the Garmin 610 watch which I can say is awesome. I took it out of the box on Friday, and it was so intuitive I was pacing the team on Sunday and relied upon it 100%.

Came in at 1:59:42 with a bang on 5:40km split as average pace for the race. Lots of nice comments on FB and Twitter. What the people running with you don't realise is that when you pace a group not only are you motivating them but they are acting as an inspiration for you. Seeing them at the end having achieved PB's makes it all worth it.

Well done eveyone who I dragged around in the pouring rain. See you next year.
