  • Boston on my mind – part 2

    Posted by rob2288 on April 15, 2018

    The first time. There is something undeniably magical about being part of the Boston Marathon. I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s there, in the air, almost tangible. It feels like the whole city is …

  • Boston on my mind – Part 1

    Posted by rob2288 on April 8, 2018

    From a twinkle in my eye to a date in the diary. So with just a week to go to the 2018 Boston Marathon, and with training having turned to tapering, it seems as good …

  • Ice ice, save me.

    Posted by rob2288 on July 14, 2017July 14, 2017

    So it was all going so well. I had a storming first marathon of the season, and was happily trucking along with my in-between plan – all was rosy in Rob’s running garden. Or was …

  • In-between days

    Posted by rob2288 on July 5, 2017July 5, 2017

    A lot of runners (myself included) who take on more than one race in a ‘season’ (however you define it) run into a similar problem of training management. Our first race is done and dusted, …

  • It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There’s almost no such thing as ready. There’s only now. And you may as well do it now. I mean, I say that confidently as if I’m about to go bungee jumping or something – I’m not. I’m not a crazed risk taker. But I do think that, generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.

  • Fast, at last.

    Posted by rob2288 on June 18, 2017June 28, 2017

    In May of 2010, not long after I’d limped over the finish line of my first ever marathon in a time of 4:18, a friend looked up what time I’d need to run to achieve …

  • “Act your age and take up golf”

    Posted by rob2288 on April 10, 2017

    “Act your age and take up golf”. This was the advice given to me by a passing neighbor as I struggled to the end of one of my runs this week.
