Yes, things seem to be progressing nicely. Hard to believe I'm over one third of the way through the plan already though! Nick: great advice thanks. One of the guys in the local running store said exactly the same - draft off the faster guys for as long as I can, I know there are plenty of high school kids entered so I'll see what the old man can do! Alex: 5:05 would be fantastic! If I run a PR I'll be treating myself to one of these beers http://www.cymru66.com/beer/samichlaus-probably-the-strongest-beer-in-the-world/ which have been the fridge since March '07. The beer is so good and so rare I promised myself I wouldn't drink another until I run a set PR....good motivation huh? Thanks Corey. Yes, things seem to be progressing nicely.

Can you measure a distance on the road for these intervals,so you have a comparison?Look to follow someone in the shorter race that is typically 10 secs quicker than you.Draft off them the whole distance..trust your endurance,eventhough you'll be breathing heavier to start with. All the best Caerdydd guy! Steve,
