I am glad that you seem able to take sensible changes when you get stresses and strains without too much mental worry. That is good because real runners have to do this fairly regularly. Paula has had loads of spells of this and it has not hurt her. Staying up with the leaders in races will come all of a sudden. I had the same problem for about 2 years asa youngster. I was beating Keith Penny easily in training but he ran miles faster than me in races. prolonged stress takes the body longer to get used to. Once it comes then you know it well!! There are no excuses then either. You have to do well.
Keep the winter effort going for another few weeks. I am sure that you are much stronger than last year - and I think you feel that too. Lets see what the summer brings...
