New year, old legs...

Oscar Wilde once said "Good resolutions are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account". He has a point; so far this year I've managed to polish off a mid-week bottle of wine, exceeded the 5 latte daily allowance, get to day 8 without running once and not shave every day. On the up side I have... um... well, we have an entire year to get it right!!

I have to decide which marathon to run in the first part of this year; Belfast or Cork. A Corkonian I used to work with reckons Cork would be far better, for one it's a little later than Belfast (June rather than May) and (for another) it's a little flatter. It'll be training run for the Dublin marathon in October where I'd like to beat 4.30 so perhaps Cork would make more sense, we'll see!

I'm off to fetcheveryone to start planning!

andrew, we are only 8 days into the new year, so I wouldn't worry too much :-) I have just been in your race portfolio on fetch and i've noticed that we've got a few races in common, which is not strange really, considering that there are so few of them around.
