This week marks the start of my ultra training. Yes that's right I've signed up for an ultra marathon this summer!
Once I'd amazed myself by running and actually completing a marathon, I started to wonder if I could do an ultra too. I tried to irgnore it, but the idea grew in my head until I found I'd signed up to run 50k this summer.
Many people have asked why on earth I would want to do such a thing and I guess the answer is to see if I can.
Just like when I try knitting a jumper or some other thing, or try out a new crafting technique, it's normally as much to see if I can as anything else.
I know the next 5 months are going to be hard. I've done this before, but I know the training will be worth it to finish the race and know I can run 50k. (I hope)
No sponsorship needed this time. This one is just for me.
So if I am quiet on here, or I'm slow to responed when you message me, it might be because I'm knee deep in mud somewhere in the Hampshire countryside getting the miles in.
