4x1200m tonight for me, a good few seconds faster than the same session before Chester. Perfect weather, got nice and cool by 8pm. Also the first time I've covered 5k in a training run in under 20 mins. Now back to important VLM talk... |

Anybody who thinks that they can achieve their best marathon time when the temperature is 25 compared to 15 celsius is deluded. |

I ran a then pb of 3:03 in Edinburgh 2009 when it was about 24. Forecast now is for 19/20. Yes it’s harder but not impossible. |

There seems to be a lot of peculiar information around about Sundays weather. From what I can see the temps are unlikely to break 19 Deg C and they'll be a cooling breeze. Not perfect, but not exactly "hot". |
