Not that I'm criticising your beautiful list, chaps, but wouldn't it make more sense to do it in date/event order and then add the names afterwards? Just because many of us will be doing the same races.
Well LT run completed and 'only' 4 @ LT pace cos I am not an elite like
. Good news is that I kept to pace and didn't want to puke at the end so must have kept to the correct side of LT rather then veer into V02 max.
I ran last year on Xmas day in the pissing down rain my kids and hubby thought I was mad especially when I literally had to strip down to my knickers on the front door mat (door was closed) as I was literally dripping wet. Plus you only get proper runners out on Xmas day!!
Oh and re list - I am running Brighton and following the 18/55 easy peasy plan.

Bronze target is sub 4, silver will be sub 3.52 and gold would be a GFA (and a miracle if I can stay injury free
).

Nice list Lit but how about being really anal and putting the names in order? Couldn't resist anyway!
Now, that's a much better looking list. Way beyond my level of thinking and/or talent
Secret is to do it in Notepad and then paste it in and add the bold
I did think about alphabetical order but decided that would be going too far. I didn't want to look like a complete knob.
Thanks!
Always good to have a bit of order amongst the chaos of life

Hello AgentGinger! Nice to see so many marathons to stalk on 6 April, which is also my birthday.
Could be a bit late to be worrying about that!
Ouch! *puts Xyloid on ignore*
OK, this is where I bugger up the formatting and also put it into alphabetical order!

First session done and dusted 9 miles with 4@LT and it was windy out tonight. Using Daniels VDot calculator my LT pace worked out @8:12mm, happy enough with a 8:23mm average @ 83%AHR
I'm scared of arsing up the beautiful formatting....so:
6th April, Paris, Sub 4 or Die, 18/55
Also don't want to mess with the formatting
13th April VMLM sub 3:30 18/70
Don't worry - DT already messed it up last night. I haven't bothered putting the marathons in alphabetical order. Unless Ramjet wants to have a go?

Suspected I would have! IT simply doesn't work for me even when I do follow identical steps!
Obviously it would stay in daster order so there just needs to be a switch between Manchester and lochaber. The universe will then be ordered again!!
Oh, and Andrews needs to be inserted appropriately!!!
Sorry about the extra space. Can't get rid of it.
Ah, but surely if they are in date order first then we should order them according to start time on that date too?
andrews! You haven't done alphabetical order either!
PS: erm, I might go for a run in a minute.

Hopefully this list should satisfy all OCD tendencies
No, I think the core point in each subset is the individual name.
Thanks ramjet, I was having palpitations over the ordering. Now that is clear I ought to be able to safely run in the next hour or so.
