Diary of a marathon runner - 13 days to go

11th August 2014 – 13 days to go!!!

Whoa! 13 days to go.  I was on hols for a few weeks but still managed to train.  It’s great to be well on the wind down now and looking about keeping yourself free from injury and resting with plenty of sleep.  Having said that i nearly broke my arm today as i slipped getting into the car!!

So for me while it’s about keeping the running ticking over, it’s also about building up the positive mental approach needed for such a long run.  I need to work on this and the Motivation Mondays on our Face book page are brilliant and witty for this.  I will try to get some quiet time over the next 2 weeks to sit and relax, visualise the route and remind myself that I have done enough training and I will run it all

So good luck to you as you look after yourself.  If it’s your first half or full marathon, don’t panic if you think you haven’t done enough.  You have so believe in what you have done over the summer months.  August 24th will be a great day for us all and our families will be supportive and happy for us.

Take care and eat well
