With two weeks to go until my half marathon this weekend saw the last of my long runs before the big day. I ran 11 miles on Saturday around Richmond Park and am now looking forward to a big reduction in the amount of miles I’ll be doing and a big increase in the amount of eating I’ll be doing as I prepare my body for the race.
I’m hoping for a sub 2hour performance but this will be quite a big ask of myself. I’m trying to tell myself I can do it while not setting myself up for too much disappointment if I trot across the line at 2.07. That’s still pretty good going.
At the moment I’m just really pleased that I’ve made it through most of my training without picking up any injuries and hoping that I don’t get ill in the next two weeks.
well done with the training. I’m also in the stage where contracting a cold is now a disaster situation, I’ve stopped touch handrails in the train station :)Runners are nuts.
