20k at marathon pace
Good session on a windy day!
In anticipation of a house move and having more space to have stuff we've just ordered a Concept2 rowing machine. Very exciting! #vaguelyrunningrelated

final hard marathon training session done (unless it gets delayed) which was 20k at marathon pace plus warm up and cool down.
went a bit too hard as the expected headwind for the first half was a tailwind, and then worked hard to keep ahead of pace for the second half, carried on to round it up to half marathon, ended up with a 1:27 half marathon which given i'm 2.5 weeks into the biggest run block I've ever done so quite pleasing.
used 1 normal and one caffeine maureten gels, they went down well, a slightly gippy tummy at the end, but made the 5k back home just fine, not sure whether it was the caffeine, the gel or the fact my eating today has been completely random.
