Do i have a glass or red with my pasta tonight ??????

Goodluck to everyone running tomorrow I've decided to stop stressing (it's my marathon cherry) and try enjoy the occasion.. If I enjoy it enough I might do another one.. And after all I've actually enjoyed the training runs and having a set goal to work towards... 

Good luck to all 

Yup thats me now tapering for my first marathon and although the training plan hasn't gone to "plan" I'm nervously looking forward to it... From the 6:30 morning runs to the Sundays spent running what feels like the length of the Union Canal to the ITband pain to the shin splints I hope this dam finish line will be worth it.....

Mates have said you'll either get the bug or never run one again!!!!! Wonder which one ill be ???

best of luck to everyone out there - remember don't stop !!!!!

Ross I'm in a similar boat struggling with a possible Stress Fracture in the foot I've been up at 19/20 mile training runs when I went for 22 miles on Sunday I had to bail due to the sore foot..... I'm going to rest it for a week and see what happens regardless ill be at the start line 26May 

See you at the finish line !!!!!! 

So how can you work out your max heart rate? 

Thanks for all the replys guys the running community is truly a friendly and supportive one... 

The good news is it might not be an SF as there appears to be no sharp pain just a dull ache today... Anyway I'm going to take a week off running and visit a sports physio and take it from there.....

THE EDINBURGH MARATHON WILL NOT DEFEAT ME !!!!!!!
