For Homer - 13 week plan - 2 miles a week = 26 and on the last week you just do .2 more. Sorted.

thank you ob :-)

obviously snap's plan is the one you'll follow - but even if for some mysterious reason you choose not to i'd have thought you'll be fine especially as you've run them before - and pretty speedily too i see from your profile :-)

If you forget to start in time, you could always follow the 26 day training plan. Day one: run 1 mile, day two: run 2 miles, etc. until race day!

I am officially out of this one now. No real prob - a spring marathon beckons. So, I have a place up for grabs. Is the Time Lord around??? Who was on the waiting list?

Also, potentially a family travel inn room at the nearest one where loads of other Fetchies are staying.
