The Cancellation

So it happened. The race in May has been cancelled.

To be honest I’m not surprised and I’ve been expecting it. The race was one week after COVID restrictions are potentially going to be lifted. I understand for the organisers its risky for it not be cancelled, but it is still disappointing.

However, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It has been rescheduled for September! So I can still run an Ultramarathon before I’m 40 (or at least attempt on).

So the race was meant to be in 79 days and it’s now in 192 days. That means I’ve got an extra 113 days of training. I’m going to use these extra days and train more so I’m in a much better shape for success come race day. I am going to complete this race, and I’m going to do it in a time I’m proud of!
