Dreaming of the Marathon

 Running from the hut at Vajrasana retreat centre

Had my first marathon dream the other night - I was ill-prepared, I think, and I got lost! I’m sure that won’t reflect my actual experience on 13 April.

I was in Suffolk this weekend, doing some gardening at Vajrasana retreat centre with three friends, which was blissful. Did this cross-country run (two laps) on the Sunday in an hour and ten minutes, which felt really good. Interesting that the satellite image of the retreat centre is still pre-2000 when it was still a working farm.

My Runner’s World marathon newsletter says that ”you’re now embarking on your heaviest four weeks of training.” I’m feeling fit and ready for that at the moment and I hope that continues - at least in my waking life.
