Longest run of this marathon training block completed, 42k with 2x5k at marathon pace the rest was easy paced . Running time 3:29:59, elapsed time about 3 mins longer with a hydration pack leak and a wee along the way.
Bit of a strange one as the focus so far this year is getting back in shape and down to something resembling race weight so the original target for Brighton was 3:30 but after running a 1:24 half I revised that down to 3:10, training indicates I’m closer to 3 but trying to keep the pressure low and leave me ready to build for London later in the year where I’m hoping for 2:50.
Right Achilles is pretty tight this morning but otherwise fine, on more week of training and then the taper starts!
