After calf strain panic the Physio today reckons I should be ok although he almost made me jump off the table. Will have to forget pb plans though. Chuffed to be back in it albeit I'll be a little slower, thanks again for the advice all!

Cuddy, I was convinced that my wheels had come off on Monday but, having given myself a jolly good talking to, have accepted that it's almost certainly the result of lots of long training runs and that when the day comes all will go well.

Had a really bad last long run on Sunday, Cuddy, but have convinced myself that it was a combination of mental and physical tiredness. Now my taper has officially started I feel much better.

Thanks guys, I've taken it easy now and starting to feel a bit better...phew! My nasty snotty nose is finally starting to clear up too, relieved.

Feeling ok - last long run tomorrow - then taper time. Last Sunday's 16m run was a bit sore - some torso chaffing and I picked up a couple of stingers (chaffed nips). That's because it was so wet and I got core-soaked in a damp mist on the first couple of miles. Lanacane at the ready now.

Did a duathlon this morning: 1 mile run, 4 mile bike, 1 mile run. Loved it and my legs felt speedy until I got off the bike.

Cuddy
Hi Mave. I'll join you on feeling pretty shattered. The sniffles are almost gone but I'm still coughing and just feeling knackered. Doing short runs and I don't feel too bad during them but they just seem to knock me out afterwards. I've been comfort eating and slapped on 5lbs in two weeks Edinburgh will definitely be a just finish race!
Been checking the forecast nervously, it's apparently going to get a lot warmer.
