Personal:

I'm a Brit living in a small town in the south west of Germany, on the edge of a nature park, the Schwäbisch-Fränkischer Wald. The landscape is very hilly with vineyards & orchards on the lower slopes merging into forest above. 42 years young, married since 1997 to my lovely wife.

Started training for an early Spring marathon today. The week kicked off with my long run, 31k at 5:03 av pace per km. Slightly faster than intended, the plan being long and slow at the moment. Beautiful autumn day with a riot of colours on the trail that only inspires.

Easy recovery run, 13,3k at 5:31 pace. (sorry - metric here) damp drizzle day but I enjoyed splooshing in the mud in the woods. Recovery days I like to explore new trails and look around.

A.M. chilly misty morning today. I started using a marathon plan for the first time on Mon and today called for 13k general aerobic & speed with 10 x 100m sprints. Could use the local school track this morning as its autumn school hol this week. Warmed up and after a sluggish start woke up my body with the sprints and 300m jogging inbetween. Then ran 8k working the pace down. Total 13k, in 56:27, av pace/k 4:21
