A mere 5 days

Until j, im, craig, scott and i will be labouring round so of the world's most famous landmarks in the british 10k. There's none of the excitement and build up of my first one, it feels more like something unpleasant that has to be done rather than a source of achievement. I partly blame the organisers for this - say what you like about nike but they know how to big up a show. During the north vs south run up, london was a sea of orange and green. This time seems to be no different - the adverts for "london vs mexico city" etc are already appearing on the side of buses. And to be honest, it all adds to the event. What have we heard from the asics british 10k? Not a dicky bird. To the point where it may be we turn up on sunday only to find it's all been a cunning ruse. Now wouldn't that be a shame?
