Dec 2006 8:25pm, 10 Dec 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin well done bigleggy!! i dont think i have run that far without at least a short break either, i usually have to have a quick walk break after 5 miles and then every 2 miles or so after that. although maybe thats more psychological than anything, cause i only stop for about 30s at a time?
KinkyS Dec 2006 8:27pm, 10 Dec 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin KinkyS You've got 3 months, you'll be fine BL. 8 miles is a good length to build on, but don't get too carried away and try to add 2 miles too often. Build up gradually and 13.1 miles will seem like a walk in the park

KinkyS Dec 2006 8:40pm, 10 Dec 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin KinkyS As long as you are covering the distance and spending the time on your feet it really doesn't matter if you need a walking break now and again anyway
