Flatlander Nov 2015 1:14pm, 28 Nov 2015 259 posts	0 Flatlander Being old and taking longer to recover from sessions, I've already started my marathon training to give me a longer gentler build up, with less chance of breaking down.
RRRunner Nov 2015 2:47pm, 28 Nov 2015 4 posts	0 RRRunner I'm in for this which will be my second Manchester after deferring 2015 due to injury. Training starts a week on Monday and looking forward to it, come back to me on that mid January!
flanker Nov 2015 5:05pm, 28 Nov 2015 16,193 posts	0 flanker Stop all this talk of plans. It's scaring me. If things go to plan, we may be living only a handful of miles from the start by then, so really had to give it a shot!

PeeG Nov 2015 1:17pm, 30 Nov 2015 98 posts	0 PeeG Do I have to start training yet?
K5 Gus Nov 2015 1:34pm, 30 Nov 2015 1,521 posts	0 K5 Gus No, not yet PeeG, but start preparing yourself for next week ! Although if following P&D then Monday's are rest days, so you can wait until Tuesday
PeeG Nov 2015 2:12pm, 30 Nov 2015 99 posts	0 PeeG Can I start P&D on Monday and then decide Monday night it is too much mileage and change to a programme with Tuesday's as rest days?
Nelly Dec 2015 7:17am, 7 Dec 2015 2,809 posts	0 Nelly So 18-week training schedules start TODAY (with a rest day if you're P&D-ing)... everybody excited about the challenges ahead? Everybody fit and raring to go? I've had a decent base building phase for the past couple of months, but have been struck down with illness for the past two days. Despite wanting to really get on with the marathon focused training I've surprised myself by taking the sensible decision to delay it for a few days
RRRunner Dec 2015 7:33am, 7 Dec 2015 10 posts	0 RRRunner Yep ready and raring to go! Also spent the past month or so building the miles back up and am ready for the challenge ahead. Following the 18 week P&D plan too so will be doing 20 mins of yoga tonight to keep things loose.
