    London Marathon training thread, anyone ?

    Re: Well done, 6 minutes is a huge chunk to take off :) It was all going relatively well until this week, I ran a hilly 20 mile race last weekend and was relatively happy with 2:23 but felt it wasn't quick enough if I want sub 3 at London. Then to make matters worse I came down with a cold...

    London Marathon training thread, anyone ?

    Achilles started playing up after I had a lovely but hilly run around Gower on Tuesday, it's feeling o.k now so I'm going to give it a bit of a test tonight and see how it goes. Still hopefull of racing on Sunday but I might have to slow it all down for a little while. Good luck in Reading :)

    No problem :) I've got a 'good for age' place, so I'm now one of the people I used to moan about making it impossible to get a ballot place :D 9 miles done tonight at 6.55 m/mile pace, perfect out there for running tonight :)

    London Marathon training thread, anyone ?

    Re: Just donated :) done the fundraising thing the last couple of years and its a bloody nightmare :D I've got Llanelli 1/2 marathon coming up, if I can finish that in 1.25 ish I'll be a bit more confident of sub 3 in London; ran Tregaron 1/2 last weekend which was a tough hilly course in 1.28...
