So here it is, Merry Christmas!
I read with interest a thread on eightlane that is just about to turn to a slagging off about running on Christmas day.  Should you run, why should you run, whats wrong with you if you dont run and no doubt by the time I finish writing this someone will have slagged someone off for their views on running on Christmas day.
Well I will be out very early Christmas morning to get a short run in.  If I wasn't racing the Ribble Valley 10k on Tuesday I would have been having to get up even earlier to get my long Sunday run in but it works out rather nicely this year.  I have my alarm set for 5am so I can get out for my run and be home for 6am which will hopefully be well before Kadi wakes up. 
Hopefully I wont see a single person when I am out running, the world will hopefully all be asleep and I can be alone pounding the streets and lanes of where I live.

Since my last blog training has been going well.  I have been getting a good number of miles in from running just once a day.  I have been on the track and feel like I am getting some speed back before cranking it up after the New Year for the Marathon I am aiming for.  I am looking forward to starting double day running and the marathon training. 

Have a Merry Christmas everyone and enjoy your running.
