Talk about changeable weather. Saturday was fantastic and everyone who went out cycling had a great time in almost summertime weather! Forecast was due for rain on Sunday so as I expected no one to hire bikes in the rain I ran the Shakespeare 1/2 marathon. Rather than raining it was roasting, good job I didnt run the whole marathon - well done everyone who did!!!
Just as my last customers had cycled off towards the Greenway the heavens opened! Everyone came back soaked!! Hope you all had a good ride anyway!
It would be good to get a good run of nice sunny days in May.

London Marathon over for another year!
Great day. I am absolutely shattered and my legs are killing me.
Good news is that my poor preparation and injuries along with a final week preparation consisting of getting completely blotto at the Runners World awards on Thursday night meant I was able to manage a PB today.
Unfortunately I missed my goal of sub 3hrs again by 2'1/2 minutes but a pb is a pb. Looks like I will have to find another event in a few months to get the sub 3.
Congratulations to all at Stratford AC who ran today!! Also congratulations to the Marathon lads (Mick n Phil) who won the Jane Tomlinson award at the Runners world dinner!!
Now to look forward to more swimming and cycling

London is Looming and its snowing!
Only one week to go until the London Marathon. A whole group from Stratford AC goes down every year for 26miles of torture. After flogging myself in the Midlands Road Relays yesterday and my last run of any length before next week I am looking forward t it.
I have bought a nice new bike from the Cycle Studio which has got me cycling again. The guys in there are great and have set me up on a nice carbon number! I am just desperately trying to make sure my wife doesnt find out how much it cost!! SO after London the triathlon season looms.
I have been really impressed with just how many people have been brave enough to get out and hire bikes over the last couple of days. JUst get out there and do it.
