Hiya P, not too sure of the adjustment but I read during the week, runners world probably, that wind is never a runner's friend. What you lose into a head wind, you generally don't get back in the tail...

Went to the physio Monday who said it will bother me at some stage in the race but I am ok to give it a go. I did this race 5 years ago at did 4:21 and hit the wall at about 16/17 miles. I was hoping to do 3:50 this year. Anything under 4hrs though and I will be delighted. Thanks to dubgal and everyone else involved for the hints and tip along the way. Have definitely learned a lot from the thread and it made training a lot easier. Are people meeting up afterwards or whats the plan? Best of luck to everyone on Monday. Fingers crossed the weather holds up.
Thanks wolfyboy
You have been away, haven't you! Good to see you back and the very best of luck and everything else on Monday. Have a look here for the most important stuff 0 -

So. Many. Tables.
What is with the SHOES?????
Should we add weather predictions too? Columns for temp, wind speed, precipitation, hurricanes...0 -

Sticking my slightly more aggressive on here but I'd be thrilled with a sub 3:30.
Good luck to everyone running on Monday 0 -

Think about getting to 5 miles (I would think to my self 5 done)
Get to 10 miles (I would think to myself 10 done)
Get to half way (I would think to myself "halfway there")
Get to 15 miles (I would think to myself 15 done)
Get to 20 miles (I would think to myself 6 to go)
Then count down the miles you have left as you hit the mile markers.
5 to go,
4 to go,
3 to go,
2 to go,
1 to go, enjoy the moment and the lift of the crowds around who are cheering you as you complete your marathon.
What about the bastard spectator who tells you at 15 miles "Nearly there....only a couple of miles to go"
He's getting a slap this year! 0
