A group of friends are looking for an interesting european marathon in the Spring as a good excuse to get away.  So far, Madrid and Rome are looking popular, although I'd probably prefer something a little flatter - Any recommendations?

I just went to the Training Plan page because I wanted to update my schedule for the London Marathon and the link has disappeared. When you go to this pagehttp://www.runnersworld.co.uk/racing/find-a-training-plan/4521.html
and click on the marathon plan link, it takes you back to the home page. Help!!!!!

If you're used to skiing, I'd definitely go for it.
Just don't do like I did and decide to give snowboarding a go, when you haven't done it for 12 years - massive bruising to my glutes put pay to my Reading Half Marathon 10 days later - Oops!

Hello Cara

I work 121/2 hr shifts for the NHS, so a mixture of nights & days which are unfortunately very irregular too, so I'm all over the place.  One of the most important things I think is to get the proper sleep, particularly after the nights.  If I've slept well then I don't find the shorter runs too much trouble before or after a shift, but I try and save the longer runs for the completely free days. I think it makes sense to try and plan your runs ahead so you're fully prepared and rested as much as possible.

Good Luck
