I ran my last run of the year this evening, down by the sea, as early fireworks exploded on the other side of the bay over Newhaven. I also have two other expeditions to record, Boxing Day's, a run up Seaford Head and round the Cuckmere, and Tuesday's, by way of contrast a flat trip the length of the bay, to Newhaven East pier and back.
In 2008 I ran two marathons, three half marathons, a ten mile, a 20K, a ten mile and two 10ks. Apart from the 20k, a new distance for me, I failed to record personal bests in any of these, but still, I am getting older. I also joined the Seaford Striders.
In 2009 I have a place in the London marathon, and I've just submitted my entry to the Sussex Beacon Half Marathon. There will be other races, doubtless.
