Feeling very bleak but not as bleak as the weather! The rain was hammering down all night and I was seriously considering my sanity when I started putting on my running gear at 5am this morning. But by 5.15 all the tweats and smses came through with the sad news that due to severe flooding and safety concerns the marathon had been cancelled. Very sad for all the organisers and athletes. 3 hours later and the rain is still pelting down and the wind has picked up. Apparently there’s a tree across the N2. Think we might be stuck here for a few days??!
So I’m going to have to find another marathon to run! And do that horrible tapering again! And at least I can train hard this week since I won’t be recovering from anything!
