Im debating if to go to london the fruday or saturday before the london marathon. Last year i went Friday and spent a lot of time doing nothing. So this year I think an extra nights decent sleep in my own bed would help but also there wouldbe a 3 hour train ride down getting me there for 1pm.
I cant see this having a bad affect on my run can you? Id get to hotel and spend all day in hotel relaxing with early night.

Not quite the same but I drove 4 hours to Newcastle for the GNR one year and had the worst Half Marathon I've ever run by a country mile.
Personal Worst time that was slower than any time I have run even in training and I felt like death at the end.
I wouldnt do it again, (the drive or GNR)
