Well I am another member of the marathon in a month team.
I have very little running experience, although I did do the royal parks half marathon last October with Daz. The aim had been to keep up the fitness regime but unfortunately training took a bit of a dive from November to March. I'm less Haile Gebrselassie, more Hardly Grabbing me Trainers.
That was until we took up the marathon in a month challenge to raise money for the great charity, NRAS, who celebrate their 10th birthday this year! So I dusted off my trainers, downloaded an app on the iPhone that tells me where to run and when, so I don't even have to think, and the programme started on Tuesday this week and counts down the the great north run in September.
Next run is tomorrow morning. Now I must say that normally Saturday mornings are made for lie ins.................but not anymore!
From the sounds of it the rest of the team are ahead of me in the training stakes so I pretty make tomorrow morning a good session(!)
When you said we are ahead of you in the training stakes! Your couple of runs this week have already racked up more mileage than everything Ive done so far this year.
