Maidenhead to Windsor and back half marathon |
I now need to start running an extra 4km a week to ramp up towards marathon distance. I've got 6 weeks left, so to go from 21km to 25 to 29 to 33 to 37 and then with a week to rest and to build energy reserves, to then hit the marathon a week later.
So long as I have no other injuries or troubles, I should be set for a 3:30 - 4:00 time. I did want to head towards 03:00, but it's clear I haven't the time to get that sort of training in. I'll be happy to finish it and set myself another challenge to beat it another day.
Other training thoughts (mainly shopping):
- Need a new pair of trainers (same as current pair)
- Test out drinking and eating on the run (find out what energy drinks and bars are being offered in Rome)
- Buy a new set of elastic laces
- Decide on what I'm going to where
- New sunglasses or new nose piece
- New running cap
