I'm not desperate to enter. I've ran it 4 times already and there are other marathons around the same time.
Throws me off when entry opens i say September rather than later in the year/early following year like they used to do.

12weeks to go untill the big day...how's everyones training progressing???

This is day one of my 12week plan. (made up by myself i might add) Starting with a nice easy double day and looking to put in my first mp run on thurs, always do these to heartrate for a better idea of current fitness.

Anyone planning tune up races along the way??

Ran the Meadows marathon yesterday paced pretty much as a long training run but pulled out a new PB of 3:21:29 so well pleased.

Next race is Alloa half aiming for sub 1:29 then the build up to Lochaber/Edinburgh but 'A' race for sub 3:15 target is definitely Edinburgh.

Feeling in good nick and fingers crossed remain injury free.

Congrads on the pb cammy - The meadows marathon sounds rough with all the laps!!

I'll also be at Alloa and then Round the Houses the following week but that seems to be all i'm planning at the moment. Will probably look for at least another 2 sharpeners late April/early May to get me race ready!!

Bazo - if you can run round London in only 26.2m then you're doing well..;-)

Great stuff Cammy - sounds like 3:15 is a reasonable aim. I did the meadows half a few years ago and the laps were tough...as was the congestion as you caught people.

Fair point STOOSH, I have an overdistance run at MP 5 weeks out, distance anywhere between 26.5 and 27.5 actual distance covered althogh the garmon wil have no idea due to tunnels and high buildings.

Alloa half and Dunbar 10k are my tune up races and thining about the Edinburgh to North Berwick 20 miler, but only as a post london/pre edinburgh long run, maybe progressive paced certainly not raced
