Good luck mateVery slow 5k today with just 11 days till London Marathon. Wore my new trainers, Brooks 15 Ghost, they seemed comfortable and caused no issues. The closer I get the more apprehensive I get about my pace. Trust the training is the advice, we shall see.
Not overly happy to be allocated the 'Red' start..

An hour away from landing in Boston for the marathon on Monday, imposter syndrome kicking in already. Two I've spoken to on the way are shooting for sub 2.30!! Off to see kipchoge later and again tomorrow, I'm sure he will know how to get over imposter syndrome!!! Trying to figure out something original to ask him, "do you know a pub showing the city game" is the best I've got

I'm doing my 3rd on Sunday & I'm 47 now. Did in 3.56 last year, aiming for 3.45 this year.Mate keeps yapping on at me to. Think I just need to get times out of my head and complete one. He's about 2 stone lighter than me and a whippet. Can keep up with him on flat and downhill but he pulls away from me when going uphill. My Garmin has been very motivating for me personally as I never ran outside up until about 5 years ago but it can make me a bit OCD about stuff.
It's a great experience and it gives you so much confidence when you get over the line, only advice I can give is do the training. I just picked a training programme and stuck to it like glue. Do that and the day looks after itself.
