Updated Training Plan

I've found a couple of events that are useful for "piggybacking" onto in my training plan (specifically the Devilla Forest 15km and the Lasswade 10 mile) and so have updated my training plan.

I am officially "in training" now, although with today being a rest day it does feel something of a cheat!
