I've shelved my sub 3:15 ambitions for Berlin. I have been struggling with various low level niggles and general tiredness and have had to miss a few long runs. My top end speed is coming back a bit since last years injury woes but think I'll struggle on endurance over 26.2! Looks like it will be Thessaloniki, Greece in April for a sub 3:15 attempt (where I did my 3:18 PB in 2015 in shocking gale force winds and driving rain!).

Sorry to hear that Jovi. Hope the niggles are on their way out. Are you still going to Berlin for a fun weekend anyway?

I've not fallen in ages. I have an unfair reputation. Probably marked my card now and will have a fall to report tomorrow

Sorry to hear that too Jovi. Sensible approach though. Reset for a spring marathon.

With the injury and holiday I am missing three weeks of training. Need to see where I am when back next week on the plan again. Hopefully not too far off.

Hi all - thanks for the kind comments. I'm still going to Berlin and still plan to run but it will be a steady enjoy the sights paced run rather than a PB attempt. I already feel a lot better with the pressure of having to run a fast one removed!

Sounds a good decision Jovi. Hope you can gets yourself to the point where you can start to do yourself justice over the marathon distance again as you're really very good at it when fit....

Sounds like a very sensible plan Jovi.
I for one am always encouraged when I see people posting on here that their plans have quite gone to plan and that they are readjusting their sights - it gives me confidence to know that if I were to hit a problem there's no reason to hide away and keep quiet about it, as the response here will be very supportive.
