A Quick History of My Marathon Career…
this next marathon, I really want to get my progression back on track. To take back control. All of a sudden, I’m not a marathon beginner, I’m a veteran with no less than TEN under my belt.
Month: March 2019
Reading Half
You often know in the first mile how the race is going to go, first mile is 5.01, race will go well. We run a few miles up hill, but the wind is on our backs. The road levels out and I find myself picking up stragglers already.
Trafford 10k
I get to bed around 11pm, wake up at 6am on Sunday morning to snow and gales. Driving through it for 2 hours to get to the Trafford 10k, I give myself every excuse in the world to turn back. But it is either this race, or 25 miles on the treadmill. And this seems marginally less terrible…
El Capitan
I have a brilliant week, this week. Mondays are normally the hardest day for me. Walking around in a daze after Sunday long run. But this week it is the best day ever.
