9 weeks in 9 weeks to go. Feeling pretty good. The diet is helping. This is the second week of cutting out added sugar unless I am on a run over an hour and take the infamous GU. Next week is the start of the Aerobic Capacity phase according to my plan. It looks as if I will be introduced to running at marathon goal pace once a week for the next 3. Not for very long but it looks like it is a taster in preparation for the phase that follows called Marathon Specific Training where running at longer periods at marathon pace are introduced. Who knows if I will ever catch up to the amount I am meant to be doing - probably in the last week!
Ran a lovely 7.5 miles today before the rain came. My friend Sam encouraged me to give up alcohol until after the race. I was in such a good mood I said I will.
