Greece is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got a groove, it's got a meaning
Greece is the time, is the place, is the motion
Greece is the way we are feeling

Well the place will indeed be Greece, and the time will be in 36 days. Hopefully there will be some motion, although I am not sure it is how I am currently feeling.

By the look of the course across the Peloponnese, there will be plenty of mountains and valleys, albeit not a Frankie Valli.

As ever my training plans will kick in just in time to realise it is time to taper.

And, as the inevitable downward slope of time heads towards the upward slope of reality I hereby commit for the 12th time to make it the last time, until next time.

The first thing that comes to mind, I am sorry, is GO! GREECE LIGHTNING!".

Somehow your training plans always seem to work out just fine. Glad you've noted the hills - but nothing worse than Hong Kong if your legs still have that muscle memory. Looking forward to seeing you for another last race.
