  • I'm not going to hit this year's arbitrary mileage target. There was an early new arrival on Sunday, which has destroyed all Christmas training and racing plans. We didn't tell anyone what was happening so I had to fit a run in during labour - not running on a Saturday would have given the game away!

    I am very pleased to have joined the dad running contingent and looking forward to seeing how it affects marathon training.

  • Childs > miles*
    Massive congrats mate, brilliant news. And big lol about going for a run during labour.

    *it almost kinda works, sort of.

  • Congrats!

  • congratulations! You may find that your long distance running improves. Those long runs suddenly become that much more peaceful and enjoyable.

    There is a definite tipping point though - I think with my first I could run unhindered, but then when the twins came along, I had about 6 months of carrying on as before, and then my performance started to take a dive.

    YMMV of course

  • looking forward to seeing how it affects marathon training.

    Getting up for a run at 5am is easier when you're already up! Congratulations!!
