Cartboat Jan 2017 7:45pm, 1 Jan 2017 5 posts	0 Cartboat I've entered with four friends. Trying to secure our places did feel like the Glastonbury experience at times! Now to find a suitable training schedule. It will be my third marathon, having completed Paris 2013 in 4.29 and London 2014 in 4.49. Hopefully the more consistent mileage I've put in will pay off in wales. Either way, I don't think I've been more excited about a race than this one.

I have been including some hills in training but invariably end up walking! Any tips from experienced Snowdonia runners? 😊
