fakToday's run was powered by frustration at neighbours who are opposing a trial scheme aimed to reduce traffic and improve air quality (but will add a couple of minutes to a car journey). A good way to tick off the miles. 9 of them at 3:23 marathon pace. I wasn't sure I'd be able to do this session so soon after Tokyo, and after getting a niggle in my hamstrings towards the end of yesterday's recovery run. But stretching and rolling seems to have at least calmed my fears that it was anything more serious than just fatigue and tightness. Let's see how it feels during tomorrow's parkrun sandwich. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thisgirlcan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thisgirlcan</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thisgirlruns?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thisgirlruns</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/runner?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#runner</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/running?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#running</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/runnersofpixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#runnersofpixelfed</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pixelfedrunners?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pixelfedrunners</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ukrunchat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ukrunchat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenrunning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#womenrunning</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/coros?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#coros</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/strava?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#strava</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/yourruns?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yourruns</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/unicornforlife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#unicornforlife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/abbottwmm?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#abbottwmm</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/londonmarathon2025?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#londonmarathon2025</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/marathontraining?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#marathontraining</a>

fakFree weights (for the first time since before Xmas) and yoga this morning, then out with the club on the Winter 8 mile route in the evening. I was way off the back of the pack (thanks Joe for staying with me) but that's because they are all super fast (and didn't run a marathon 10 days ago). It was actually one of my faster times on that route, but I expect to pay for it tomorrow. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thisgirlcan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thisgirlcan</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thisgirlruns?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thisgirlruns</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/runner?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#runner</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/running?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#running</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/runnersofpixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#runnersofpixelfed</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pixelfedrunners?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pixelfedrunners</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ukrunchat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ukrunchat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenrunning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#womenrunning</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/coros?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#coros</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/strava?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#strava</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/yourruns?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yourruns</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/unicornforlife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#unicornforlife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/abbottwmm?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#abbottwmm</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/londonmarathon2025?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#londonmarathon2025</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/marathontraining?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#marathontraining</a>

fakTokyo marathon done and six-star journey completed. It turns out that even if you run a marathon 'easy' it's still quite hard. Average temperature during training: 4°C (39°F). Temperature at start of marathon: 12°C (54°F). Super congested at the start, which continued for at least the first 4k (2.5 miles) where I nipped off course for a comfort break. As with many big city marathons it suffers from lots of runners failing to follow race etiquette (weaving, cutting across, suddenly stopping, walking in the middle of the route) and I'm not sure arranging the drinks stations by bib number was a fantastic help. They tended to appear all of a sudden on only one side, too. Paper cups, but filled less than half, so I started taking two per station to try and keep hydrated. Managed to keep to 3:30 pace for the majority of the run, fading in the last 8k (5 miles) which had no shade at all. Stopped completely at the final few drinks stations (off to the side, out of the way) to get on fluids. No point in doing unnecessary damage with London 8 weeks away. Didn't walk at all (I thought I might have to at some point with the heat), and picked it up for the final stretch on the cobbles. Official time 3:35:29. Medals and finisher goodies collected, then back to the hotel for a nice hot bath before popping back to the charity lounge for light snacks and thanking them for my place. Then used the voucher they provided for some fries and a strawberry milkshake to take back to the hotel to start the refuelling process. A shame about the weather, but you can't do anything about it.

fakThey weren't kidding about the temperature warming up. It was double digits °C and raining for the 'cheeky' Winter 7 route at club tonight. The pace was a bit warm too for not a flat route.
