It starts here...

So, Cambridge to Paris, something like 360 miles in 5 days. Sounds easy when you say it quickly doesn't it? Throw in the few thousand training miles, particularly through the wind, rain and sleet of the next few months and it becomes a challenge!

Not that I'm starting totally from scratch. I commute 12 miles or so (round trip) to work 2 or 3 times a week and go for the odd run. Still better than nothing. Typically the day after I devised a training plan last week I had a twinge in my knee. I hope it's just in my mind...!
