whiteflash, I assume you saw the publication of the proposed route a couple of days after our last conversation(?). I hadn't actually looked at it in any detail until this morning when I realised they have slightly amended the city centre loop from that proposed for 2020. I've updated the route in the sidebar.

My 18-week training schedule starts in 12-days, anybody else the same?

Yes Nelly, saw it. Looks like 5 miles into a potential headwind! I’ve been doing a bit of base building in preparation as I struggle to increase my mileage, but start mine in the next couple of weeks too.

Nelly, I’ve started an 18 week tentatively for a seaside marathon in September though on week 3 had to ad-lib it while recovering from Windermere!

First 20-miler already whiteflash, and at a reasonable pace :-)

Looks like you’ve got a busy few months in Autumn Dunc! Are you planning to focus on a time at any of them, or just complete them all?

Nelly I’m going to play it by ear and see how recovery goes . I didn’t plan this , it was all taken out of my hands🙄🙄
Hopefully one of them will be for a time , I’ll decide after it’s finished so that way I’ll look in control😂

So, how are the plans going?! I have started mine. Not stuck to plan by day 2! However, I am super excited by the prospect of training up for this. Got PF niggles but I think I can cope with it. Can’t wait to get a bit fitter and start to feel a bit quicker and ready. Hope everyone else is feeling motivated.
