Had my 2nd half marathon this weekend and took 4 mins off my personal best, despite a much hillier course and not feeling on form. Really suprised myself because I really didn't think I'd be able to beat my Leicester time. Dead pleased

Next big races I have arranged are:
Belvoir Challenge (Feb) - 16 mile cross country
Kilomathon (March) - 16.2 mile road race
Ashby 20 (March) - 20 mile road race
VLM 2010 (April) - 26.2 mile slog
That will be interspersed with some much shorter (5-8mile) league road and cross country races

This is getting hardcore!!

Congratulations, that's really impressive, you're not half getting into this running lark.

Right... I may have inadvertently signed up to a half marathon in may.... could be fun. Could kill me. We shall see!

HURRAH!!!!

: D Which one?

You'll be absolutely fine

Just slow it down for your longer distances.

Pickers · 17-12-2009, 23:44

Yeah - I'll have to work on my pace I think. I get bored going slow, but going fast is obviously going to wear me out!

Its the Plymouth Half Marathon... Chap at work has set the ball rolling and all but signed me up... might be a laugh if nothing else!

Anyone else struggling with the snow? Want to go out but would rather avoid breaking a leg.

31st Dec: 6.4km (35m)

Ice in Southampton finally disappeared & I managed a 3miler in about 20minutes this morning.

Journey, Lifehouse & Simple Plan on the go for encouragement.

What else do people listen to on training runs?
