I got into FLM this year too Mooks. I'm gonna definately do the bastard and put it behind me. My last effort was 5 years ago and it fucked my right knee up so I'm taking an easier approach this time. Only 3 runs a week, 2 x 5 miles and a long Sunday run. I also cycle commute about 125 miles and sometimes do another 60ish weekend miles (if I'm not fecking running all day!).
Sounds to me like you also want to get this thing behind you..... If your doing a 1/2 in 1:50 (as I am) your in pretty good shape. You've 'only' got to do another 5 weekends worth of long runs, + do another couple of speedier runs in the week and you'll be fit enough to get round 26.2, maybe not to a potential PB time.....but at least you'll have a time to aim at if you want to do it again in the future?
