“When will I know that I feel ready to train for a marathon?” 🤔

You may never “feel” ready to start, you may get close to starting and get the urge to say no… if you’re waiting to be ready, this is your sign to just go for it! 💪

Put in the hard work and the training and it will all be worth it🏅

Illegal Track Activity?🧐

At the session last week we spotted some suspicious rep time recordings which required further investigation🕵️‍♂️

Taking it to VAR and it has been confirmed that fraudulently recorded faster rep times by stopping his watch early! ❌

Consider this your final warning Tom, as any repeat offences will be taken further with 👮‍♂️

Keeping integrity within the sport and at training sessions 😂

Allow me to reintroduce myself on the Road to 2:50 at Valencia 🍊

One of the targets during the Valencia Marathon prep was to race MCR Half and try to run sub 1:20, knowing this would set me up well to have a shot at 2:50 in the marathon 🎯

Straight from the gun the mantra for the race was “this is my day”… this was all about having self belief, convincing myself that everything was going to go to plan and not letting any doubts creep in 🙅‍♂️

It was my day. 1:19:02. and a 2 minute 50 second PB and the confidence that 2:50 is going to happen come 6th December 🗓️

This is my best performance to date and I’m still not over it, but the jobs not finished yet…

8 weeks to go on the Road to 2:50 at Valencia 🍊

Could I beat my Strava & COROS predictions at MCR Half? 🤔

Swipe to find out 👉

Spoiler! 📢

I beat my previous PB of 1:21:52 by 2 minutes 50 seconds, with a finishing chip time of 1:19:02 Official Marathon Time Integrity Unit - no strava times claimed here! 😅

Beating my Strava prediction by 2 minutes and 26 seconds and my COROS prediction by 2 minutes and 7 seconds… the next question is, what time will I run at Valencia Marathon? 👀
