Diary of a Marathon Runner - 15 weeks to go

15th May – 15 weeks to go

The past week didn't go as planned so only got out 3 times with no real long run.  Ended up with a 5k, a 10k and the ‘Darkness into Light’ event.  Tough one but great idea and well supported.  However, I feel we are far enough out to have an odd week when things don’t go to plan but then again life’s like that and it’s how you deal with it will determine how you do.  Thankfully I decided to let it go as they say in Frozen!

What I have also added to the shorter runs are press-ups and squats, usually 20 of each after a post run stretch.  Its helps with breathing and strengthening the upper body for longer runs.  So hopefully back on plan for the next week

Enjoy your running this week!
