Hi Mike

Thanks for all the advice and guidance over the last few months, you had been great! x x

I wanted to enjoy the whole experience and for me the training schedules were just great and running the marathon was the most amazing thing I have done in my life, I enjoyed every mile and had plenty of time to look around, enjoy the sites and the crowds. I smiled the whole way round and  even sprinted the last 400m finishing in 4.35.

Does anyone else remember doing the YMCA, cant remember where I was at this point, but it was so funny.?

Kindest Regards

Hi Mike

Training was going really well. Did Stamford 30k couple of weeks ago, my longest run got round in 3hr 11mins very pleased, seemed to have something left at the end as well. However struggled to get round 18 mile training run at weekend and seem to have come down with bug,cold and sickness.Due to do wymondham 20miles on sunday not sure what to do ? If I rest all week will I be able to run at weekend? Or should i just forget about run take things really easy.  Tracy

Hello

I,m a first timer, done a few halfs, please with times.

Using the RW marathon programme training going fine, have joined a gym and have been told to use this to strenghen my core! but unsure what exercises i should do, they have written me a programme but i seem to be doing lots of leg work.  I am happy with my running and dont really want to work my legs to much at gym, but really dont know what i should be doing.

 Can any one help?

PS anyone doing Stamford on Sunday, I must be mad!!! never run this far before.
