Looking at the league table in the strava club, is xinyi ge on here? Mega miles that one, and seems to be able to do two things at once
You could do a bit of cycling instead of running? From my experience of both cycling and running races, cycling and running compliment each other and they help to improve performance in each discipline......to a point.I agree. The difference made by the heat is immense. I'm supposed to have a marathon in July but I simply can't train adequately for it in these conditions! As for the event itself, I can't say it seems appealing.

Hal Highdon. A serious runner friend recommended it to me last time and it worked so I'm using it again. I just print off the novice 2 schedule and follow that sometimes moving the actual days I run as I work shifts. I did 3:29 in 2016 but will aim for sub 4 maybe 3:45 this time.What plan are you using Emms and what's your target time?
That’s decent.Half Marathon this morning, 1.45.22. 8 minute miles pace, happy but legs are killing me. Probably shouldn't have done 14k yesterday
Nice one! I'll check that plan out. I've got the Valencia marathon at the beginning of December and aiming for 3:30.Hal Highdon.

Nonsense, Im up at half three on my day off!!You could do a bit of cycling instead of running? From my experience of both cycling and running races, cycling and running compliment each other and they help to improve performance in each discipline......to a point.
On a more serious note you could adopt the gaz76 training method of running early in the mornings when it is cooler? Gaz normally gets up at 3 am and does a 20 mile run before work. But on his day off he has a lie in until 4 am and only runs about 15 miles.
I certainly agree with Hal Higdon marathon plan. I followed it for a couple of marathons and it worked a treat.Hal Highdon.
