My race is still in the balance as I'm struggling with a back injury having recovered from reactive arthritis in my knee so I'm not in great shape. If I make it to the startline, my plan is to make the cut offs and get round seeing this as a stepping stone to getting fit again. My PR is 4.30 but if I can do it in 5 I'll be happy. It seems unlikely at the moment but you can never say never!

(its so annoying, this is the first year I'm running it now that I live in Horton...it feels like it should be 'my' race!)
