Cheers puzzler, I'll have a look at that, entering those training plans is time consuming. I feel more motivated for knowing what I have to do day in day out. Making it up on the fly is a recipe for bailing out on a session.

No sub-3s in the offing then? On checking the race finder I see Huddersfield marathon was today...don't fancy that much. Glad I'm not gearing up for an autumn marathon in this weather! I did briefly consider a sneaky late entry into Chesterfield as I enjoyed it a couple of years ago, but it seems to have folded (the half is still running though). They were promising big prizes and a few fast invited runners when I previously checked the page! |

My next crack at sub 3 is Abingdon, so a while away yet. I did notice that this thread has gone way quieter than the 2:45 and 3:15 threads that we're sandwiched between!

I'm enjoying not marathon time chasing at the moment, focusing on shorter distances and more emphasis on speed is making a refreshing change. I hope it puts me in a good place come Christmas when I start preparing for London next year. I'm not skimping on the miles either, 57 miles this week in preparation for a 10K at the end of the month. I also have a 5K on Wednesday evening, I'm hoping for something in the mid to low 18 minutes for that. |

For what it's worth, I've got my entry in for London next year and put my target time down as 2:53:00. No pressure!

Where did you put the target time down? I only saw the bit where it asked what your actual time was

My preferred answer would have been 'It's too far away to know' but since they didn't, I had a wild stab in the dark but keeping it just about realistic.
