<p style="text-align: left;">For those of you who haven&#8217;t checked it out, have a look at my personal list of &#8220;<a href="http://thevirtualrunner.org/blog/best-running-blogs/" target="_self">best running blogs</a>&#8220;.  There are many great blogs worth reading and I can honestly say that they are all on my reading list in Google Reader.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I had my consultation at Optimax today to see if I am suitable for laser eye surgery.  I am!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">My surgery date is booked for 2nd September (three weeks) and I&#8217;m really excited about it now.  I went through the procedure with the people at Optimax and all the statistics regarding the potential results. </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I won&#8217;t be writing much tonight I&#8217;m afraid as looking at my computer screen is killing my eyes.  They put the drops in my eyes that make the pupils dilate and they&#8217;re getting sore.  Everything is very bright.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Running is still going on and I&#8217;m currently trying to work out a marathon training plan.  In fact, you might be able to help!  I&#8217;ve been looking at training plans that are based on a recent finish time and the plans I&#8217;ve found show some pretty slow training paces.  Does this mean that I&#8217;ve been running too fast or that I just need to slow down for marathon training and concentrate on the quality?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">If you&#8217;ve done marathon training before I&#8217;d certainly welcome your advice.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Finally, I got my &#8220;Training for the Brighton Marathon&#8221; T-Shirt.  It&#8217;s great!  I love running T-Shirts.</p>
