Kind of inspiring when you get caught up in the high quality stuff. Club mate and I (both V55) did decent low-36 times at a 10K last month, but the band was 50-59 and we were beaten hollow by a 52 year old youngster who ran 33:15.

Best of luck for tomorrow Baz. I'll be down cheering you on and at the finish around 2 hours 39 minutes after the race starts to see you cross the line

back on and will disappear quickly. unfortunately yesterday didnt go to plan, legs felt sore and tired from the off, and from 12 i was in pain from the waste down. legs just felt tight. i managed to finish which was a bonus but its put me off marathons for a while unfortunately.
off on holiday for a week now. will gather myself and aim for quick halfs and 10ks towards the end of the year.

Hello All, just joining the thread. Came back to running in January after 20 mts off and just ran the Edinburgh half yesterday in sub 80min. So now I foolishly think I can run a sub 2:45-2:50 marathon with some serious training. Chester Marathon on 2nd Oct is my goal.

Any training programmes I can follow for a sub 2:50-2:45ish? I kinda winged it for the half and just mixed it up with a some different runs each week, just went with how I felt.
