Well, with the good weekend over it was time to spend some more money on running gear. After investigating new shoes online, I went into Glasgow with the idea that I would purchase the newer versions of my Nike Zoom Structure Triax+10s. After a while I ended up in Achilles Heel in the west end, a specialist running shop where I bought my last pair a few years ago. After having a chat with the assistant and getting my feet checked again, the conclusion was that the new Nike Zoom Structure Triax+13s were the best option. So, a new shiny pair of shoes for me then, although they did come at a cost! Could have done without that.

Tonight I also managed to book myself in for the Saturday and Sunday nights in London (race on Sunday 25th April). After trying the usual suspects of Travelodge, Premier Inn, etc. a nice offer was taken for the Ramada Docklands Hotel. By having a look at the location it’s fairly ridiculous: right across the water from Greenwich Park for the start of the race but also about a two seconds walk to the Excel Centre for registering on the Saturday. No excuses then!
