It's getting close to Barcelona now - just another week and a half until I'm trotting around the streets of that wonderful Catalonian City in an attempt to run 26 and a bit miles... Unfortunately the wheels came off my preparation these past few weeks - between catching a cold and general work upheaval, but I'll not allow the negative voices to get to me, I'm going to enjoy this marathon come hell or high water. Yesterday evening I went to Seanadh Phéistín for a six mile run with Conor. He'll also be running the Barcelona marathon, as will Míchéal. We were both a little dodgy going into yesterday's run - he had lost a couple of weeks of training also, but the six miles did us the world of good - if not physically, then certainly mentally! My plan now is to get another few mile in tomorrow, and then compete in the Craughwell 10 mile run on Sunday. Then it's pasta and rest until Sunday week!
You're ready, Breandán! Good luck for the great day!
