New Year - New Gear

As my mileage has been ramping up; sadly my Apple Watch battery isn't coping as well and I'm finding the battery not lasting the day if I do a long run so I've spent some time looking at watches and leaning towards the Suunto Spartan line. I like Suunto as a brand as I've got a few for Scuba Diving and they have served me well. As much as Garmin seems to be the goto brand I haven't really been a fan of my sons so not convinced I'll go with that.

As far as training is going, I'm using the Half Marathon training plan from Strava and ran my 2nd Half Marathon distance this morning. Around 6 minutes quicker than my last one so happy with the progress and think a 2 hour half marathon is the target time for me.

As its New Years Eve, the goals for me next year:-

• Half Marathon - Feb
• Marathon - April
• Under Armour You v The Year 2018 (1018KM in the Year
• Beat my 5K time for 2017
• Beat my 10k time for 2017

Have a great new year eveyone!
