The 2011 London Marathon is six months today.
I am not the sort of person who usually sets long term goals. I believe very much that what will be will be, regardless of the plans we make, and on that basis I have always tried to live a day at a time and not think ahead too much.
Preparing for the marathon is forcing me to make plans, and it doesn't come naturally.
I have now finalised my training schedule for the next 26 weeks, and can't help but wonder what the next six months will bring.
Will my ankle continue to improve, or will it cause problems all the way through?
Will my fundraising be successful, or will I be struggling to reach my target?
Six months today, is it really possible that I will be in London clutching a finishers medal?
If you had told me six months ago that I'd have a place in the 2011 London Marathon I'd have laughed. My asthma was a real challenge, and I couldn't even run to the end of the road.
This week I swam a mile, rode for 16km on the exercise bike and didn't get breathless once.
So, what will the next six months bring...?
What goals do you have...?
