So with just ten days until I attempt to run a marathon - what am I doing? Training hard, eating vegetables and sourcing vaseline?
You'd think so, but I'm not training hard. Once again, as I've managed 17.5 miles I know think that this is all a breeze and I've nothing to worry about. Had a bottle of wine and a huge takeaway meal last night too, plus I can't find a small pot of vaseline. I don't want to be that guy who has a pot of vaseline just kicking about the house. I want a small pot of lubricant that I can use in the next week and a half then be done with.
I am however, trying to eat properly, last night aside. I'm currently struggling my way through a bowl of "Scotch Broth". It's not. There is no whisky in it for a start. I've basically loaded it up with seasoning so it now resides somewhere between the Dead Sea and my Dad's celery soup, which I have to drown with pepper to make it go down. It's made of celery, then watered down! Sorry Dad, but it's not for me.
Training - should and will go out for a run this afternoon. False Creek loop in the rain, which is about six miles from memory. Hopefully it'll go better than two days ago.
I need to book this whole marathon thing in now I think.
No Snickering.
