12 miles MLR

And so it begins. 20 weeks of training for the 2018 London Marathon.

I am following the “Advanced Marathoning” 70 to 85 miles per week plan with two extra recovery weeks. These plans are for serious runners who aren’t scared of putting the miles in.

Last winter I followed the 55 to 70 miles per week plan which resulted in a 3 hour marathon. It will be interesting to see what my body makes of the extra mileage.

And so today: 12 miles averaging 7:45 minutes per mile. I did the run in the dark after work; not my favourite running conditions but it was mild and dry so I’ll take it.

Day on complete. 139 to go!
