Lincoln Half Marathon

I've been waiting all year to run the 1/2 Marathon Race here in Lincoln. I originally signed up for it way back in October last year, so this has been a long time coming. As I mentioned in that 'signing up' post, I had just picked up a niggly groin injury. I was optimistic that in the following 12 months, I would get past the injury, and then I could then try a proper training block with some speedwork and interval sessions, with a lofty time target of 1 hour 45 minutes.

Little did I know then, just how relentlessly rubbish my training would become... with set back after niggle after fall after set back.

Eventually, after a stop-start, hit and miss year, I made it into the start of September and, with help from the local physio, it appeared I had finally solved the injury issue, and was able to try to string some consistent training together.
