This week has been a great week for me personally... Monday I successfully passed the Viva assessment for my Masters by Research degree in Sport Development, and then Thursday I passed my driving test at the first attempt. All this whilst sticking firmly to my marathon training plan! Running has in fact offered me a perfect time over the past weeks to reflect and prepare for both these milestones, whilst running along roads I would often find myself imaging what I would do if I was driving in this situation! What made me smile the most however was this card I received from my friend - highlighting one of my key motives for learning to drive - I can now get to more running races! I think I will stick to the train when travelling to the Marathon however, I don't fancy trusting my legs to even operate the pedals post race!! |
