Fear

4 months 3 days to go until Flora London Marathon

Today's quote: "Fear is a great motivator." - John Treacy, 1984 Olympic silver medalist.

Fear of not being able to beat my expected time does motivate me but at the same time I know that as I get older I will get slower - fact of life. But I don't think I'll stop running. Running can be a part of life rather than a sport. For now though running is my sport / hobbie.

Yesterday I ran 17 miles in total (two runs). Average of 7 minutes per mile.
Today I have ran 4 miles this morning and will be doing a track speed session tonight.
