Very sensible decision seeing as it’s not your main goal race. I ignored some warning signs while training for Yorkshire marathon and then with four weeks to go did the Vitality 10k in London and ended up with a small quad tear with 300m to go. I did end up doing Yorkshire Marathon and actually ran a half decent time. Conditions were terrible especially in the last 10k but the support was brilliant and got me through it.
Hope it heals up soon mate 🤞. Think there's at least 3 other ever presents that weren't able to make it round today, but there's more important things.
Good to see you are being Mr Sensible! Good luck for the week ahead 🤞
Your doing the right thing, it’s always a fine line when training at your level to stay away from injuries. Keep the faith and keep on running
Tough decision but the right one Gareth. I saw Naomi out on the course and wondered why I didn't see you. All the best with the recovery mate
Good luck Gareth, Valencia here you come.
Definitely not worth the risk! Was a tough day out there but managed to grab myself a 9 min PB 3:02

Good decision! It's tough
Sorry you weren’t there today Gareth hope Valencia goes well

Good decision. Nothing to gain by running the race and potentially a lot to lose.
Very wise decision -- Valencia is the main target -- I know you will not stop your running streak - but cut back for a while
You don't half bloody moan...it's only running 😅😅😅
