Five months until N. Dorset Village

The North Dorset Village Marathon:

Not the best-known marathon but it's the highest-rated one I've ever seen on the Runner's World UK site (98% overall score):

People think it's great and I expect that it will be. I signed up a few days ago, my race number is 145. It's on 05 May 2013, five months away, on a bank holiday weekend so my family and I can spend a couple of nights at a hotel near the race and have a little vacation.

I've decided against Bungay, but I am planning on doing the Kent Roadrunner Marathon on 01 June. This will give me four weeks to recover from N. Dorset, and a second chance to run sub-3:15, in order to qualify for London 2014.
