I am taking part in my first marathon on Monday 1st May in Milton Keynes. I've been training hard for months now so not done as much cycling though last weekend had a fantastic and tough weekend's cycling in the Peak District. 26.2 miles is nothing on a bike - have done that times 3 or 4 on a bike, sometimes fully loaded. But running is a different matter. The longest runs I have done so far have been 2 x 20.5 mile training runs and they were tough! Looking forward to it, but will be relieved once over after all this training. Then follows a weekend trip to Bruges to relax and then back to what I love best - cycle touring!
Update - everything went well on marathon day and I did it in 4h11m which I was very pleased with! It was tough but I really enjoyed it. Much tougher than cycling! I was going really well over the first half, and well under 4 hours. But miles 14 to 20 were hard and my average pace dropped. Then once past the 20 mile mark I got a second wind. A fantastic experience and hope to do another.
Back to cycle touring and I'm kicking things off this year with the Cycle Touring Festival in Clitheroe, Lancs next weekend 26-29 May.
