RE: Havey's #2020km Challenge - First Month Report & Chosen Charity
Yea that is a long warm up. Is that after a few stretches or do you just go straight in to it?
I could probably jog for a lot longer at a slower pace as I have done with marathons but I do have another goal of running one under 4 hours... Failed 5 times so far but am gearing up for one in 2021 with a couple of friends hopefully!
Good job on the final speed there! Intervals can be good fun but yes, when you realise that you're slower than world record holders even for a short burst vs their 42kms... You really appreciate just how fit these athletes are!
I do 'dynamic stretches' beforehand, I don't even stretch or foam roller after TBH, I do yoga a few times a week though.
While i fancy the idea of a marathon, it's really not my thing, I like walking long distances, not running so much these days.
If I'm going over 10Ks I find it hard to get out of bed that day.
You should try some longer intervals for your marathon training and less of the pounding out the miles, it might work!
Those athletes - very impressive.
