Helen and I, from the April Vetrunner, now available online. Today is BBQ Stakes day. Both Helen and I finished Saturday's 32k shakily, and we still plan to run the Stakes today, but a pb is out of the question. For the record, here's our recent progress:

The first Wednesday of the month the course is run in reverse, which is supposed to be harder; but both of us have run our pbs that way. Personally I prefer the reverse course with its steeper start and nice long run down to the finish.

We both ran much quicker than we expected. Which is a great confidence booster!
Unfortunately Helen may be well ahead of us in the marathon: she won't be running all of it, she may just run half! She is playing at a concert that afternoon and has decided a full marathon would be a serious mistake.]
