10... Ok lets just let that sink in a bit.. Easy 6 mile was ok, may a tad fast in places. I ran alongside the Muller factory at one point, where they make the yoghurt, I could smell a nice strawberry flavour coming through a vent. I did go a bit quicker at that point as there was a lot of people about and I always seem to…
Just adding the splits, I am trying a little more detail as I had a couple of stops (talking to people, asking directions) which affected the split times. I know I am going to get told off for the first mile, but I didn't realise I was going so fast until I checked my pace near the end of the mile, it felt really easy,…
Ha ha - were they not that bad then, I was a bit worried Slacking! I'll give you Slacking! lol My easy run felt quite hard today, my legs were numb with cold and at one point I thought I was going fast and was sooo disappointed when I looked at the Garmin. It was starting to get a bit slippery around pot holes and puddles…
Went for a slightly later run today, but took Spoons advice and went off road and for 5 miles ran on the canal tow path. I can now add that to the list of new things completed since starting this training. As well as today being mistook for an ambulance person! Unfortunately someone had need to call an ambulance, and just…
Well what do you think your marathon pace should be? I would suggest 10:00 pace if you're feeling confident and the weather is cool. Maybe 10:15 if it's a hot day.

I haven't really ventured off road much at all, but there is a canal about 3 miles from where I live with a tow path, would that count? it seems so flat though. The Ellesmere half (which I still need to enter) is hilly, it had very steep banks which reduced a lot of us to walking up them last year, so I might need to…
