Well, after wallowing in the mild winter, this week has seen a cold snap, and whilst we don't get the snow that affects others, it's still nippy enough for us warm-blooded souls.
So, in defference to the weather, I went and joined the local gym at long last. I have been putting it off for a while, waiting for the January Resolutioners to get things out of their system, but it was either gyn or freeze this week, so along I went and paid my money. Club Vitae is the name of the place, and it's well equipped and I managed a couple of sessions this week, including a 5K run in 26:07 - OK, not brilliant , but a start.
I have my first race of the season on Sunday. It's a 5 Miler, the Raheny Shamrock 5, and last year (when I was fit), I ran it in 36 minutes. This time I'll be happy with 45 minutes - that's how bad things are - but it is a great little race, and I have a pal flying over from England for the run, so something to look forward to.

You're still faster than me. Good luck with Sunday's race and don't worry about your time. Keep your eye on the big picture--Boston 2008!
