I’m withdrawing from this weekend’s Barcelona 24 hour race.

I went down with a nasty virus after the Oslo race and I’m only just back running now and still a bit wheezy.

Health comes first, so no race for me this weekend.

However, I’m still going to Barcelona, in fact I’m there now.

My crewman Tim Rainey said he still fancied going and everything was booked anyway so it’s a quiet weekend in the winter sun for us!
