It was a gorgeous day in London today. Blue skies, barely a cloud to be seen, and running groups aplenty out enjoying some of their last timed / long runs before the taper.
The funny thing about doing a big race like the London Marathon is that you KNOW that half the people out there are going through the same thing as you. The streets become more crowded from January onwards as training picks up, and on days like today (the first positively glorious spring day of the year) every runner was taking the opportunity to enjoy some sun and heat after a season of dark runs, cold feet, gloved hands and getting soaked.
So if I smiled in a rather insane way at you as I pootled around Green Park, Hyde Park and The Mall this morning, I'm sorry, it was the weather wot made me do it.
