I found out today it was the London Flora marathon (happening about 6 miles from my house) so instead I drove for an hour to Princes Risborough in the chilterns to do a training run and to be fair I think for me it was a lot more pleasureable. Ran a fast 20 mile race over the berkshire downs 2 weeks ago, but I needed a long hilly ru now I've recovered from that. Between Risboro and Wendover is spectacular as you'll see from the photos. I tried to find a swimming spot on the thames after for my first "wild swim" of the year, but the currents were too strong east of Marlow and it was too muddy and busy. I got a good tip off though for next time further west near Henley.
It's April 29th and I'm burnt!
