    Good luck! It is quite some goal :) Recovery is always a bit of a pain, good luck with it too!

    Likewise!

    Good luck. Great to have an end goal, key is not to beat yourself up if you have an off day. Also find updating my iPod with new tunes works when struggling to motivate myself to go training. There's some great pump up tracks by Rob Bailey and Zack Hemsey on iTunes. Luke
