So… here I am again.

I gave up my Project365 for a while, because I was wanting to get the chance to get to bed a bit earlier of an evening. The reason? I was in the final stages of training for the Edinburgh Marathon.

Well, I managed to complete the marathon! My time was a slightly disappointing 4:17:36, but in the blistering heat we experienced that day, I think I did okay for my first ever marathon.

Anyway, today I went for my first run since the marathon – just a short run along the canal. I started here, where the A801 crosses the Union Canal, and was actually okay… a little heavy, a little stiff, but okay.

And now it’s back to the 365.

And the next marathon I’ve signed up for… 30-Sept, Loch Ness Marathon!
