Keep plugging away at it mate, marathon training in this weather is tough, and as always the training has a habit of both boosting and draining your confidence in times etc.
I'm in the same boat, 9 weeks until Chicago and don't feel as though a decent time is possible, slowly resigning myself to using Chicago as a stepping stone to a better time in Valencia which is 16 weeks away.
Strength training is boring, but helps so much, I've just started uping it AGAIN this week, hopefully don't fall off the wagon with it after another week but it just bores the shit out of me
Cheers Gaz. Also I have done my usual trick of never following a training plan and just running when I feel like it, and then next thing you know it’s 9 weeks away.
Still hopefully will enjoy both of them, not beat myself up about times and use both runs as building blocks for next year.
Valencia definitely a possibility for next year as I hear it’s super quick. Looks like you have a great few months of running ahead of you.
