I'll be looking to get round without injury in under 1hr:45. Its on 22nd March so just 60 days away. My only concern is what will it be like running in my Duffle Coat given usual weather conditions at that time of year in Central Scotland.

I just looked up that link on Wikipedia and amazingly one of the guys from Franz Ferdinand is pictured 'cooly' wearing a Duffle coat. When exactly did that happen? I had a Duffle Coat in 2nd year at high school and I can safely say that it wasn't at that time considered a high fashion icon. In fact at that time being caught in possession of a Duffle Coat on the way to school was more likely to see you being relieved of your dinner money and at best left with a dead leg and more likely a kick in the gonads into the bargain.
http://www.alloahalfmarathon.co.uk/ is the link for the half marathon if you fancy it. :O) Duffle coats on the other hand are available from most second hand clothing shops. I can say that from bitter personal experience that you buy one at your peril.
My legs are very very painful today after yesterdays run and I've been hobbling round the office and putting on a brave but determined face...tommorrow I suspect will be worse but I've mentally pencilled in a session on the bike after work or in the unlikely scenario that I can get up early enough I'll do the 7am spinning session at the gym...I'm not in any way looking forward to either option. I need to do something though as I'm booked for Munich on Thursday this week so thats a day blocked out with no training, so tomorrow is a must train day.
