Marathon Training
Ive just finished a 17 mile training run around the roads near home. It's a beautiful day - sunny but cool - but after about 10 miles of running the charm of the countryside began to recede as my legs grew steadily wearier. However, I managed to maintain an 8 minute mile average so I am tired but happy. If I can stretch this average over the full 26.2 miles of the Dublin marathon then I will finish just within my target of 3 hours and 30 minutes. That goal looks a bit ambitious at the moment.
