Thinking of summer

No significant improvement to my health today so unfortunately that means another day off.

Without anything to write about I thought I'd share a video from early last summer at the British Milers Club Watford Grand Prix.

Watford seems to get a bit of a hard time but it has the most fantastic sheltered track with a perfect park for warming up. There's never been a breath of air any time I've raced there either which makes it my favourite track in the country.

The Grand Prix is a really special event. The BMC put on around 30 races, half 800s and half 1500s and the races are seeded to try and get everyone competing with people at the same level in an effort to run quick times.

This was my first race of the year under four minutes. The winner of the race beat me by about the same margin in Saturday's XC, although that was over five miles rather than 1500m, which bodes well for this summer if I can get healthy!
