What to do after the Marathon?

Hello

I'm a relative beginner to long distance running and I'm getting pretty excited about competing in my first London Marathon this year.

One reason to enter was to lose some weight as well as it being a fantastic personal challenge.

I have lost a stone and a half through my training, but I'm already casting my mind forward about what to do after the race and I've come up with a couple of questions that some more experienced runners may be able to assist with.

How soon after the Sunday should I run again?

What sort or running routine/training should I follow now in order to continue weight loss as part of a healthy diet, but without the target of a specific race?

How many times a week should I be looking to run?

Hoping someone can help.
