Well done Ali! I, in a moment of stupidity last monthI entered Edinburgh marathon - and got in. It's in May som training commences after Xmas. It's on road as well, something I swore I'd never do! Primary goal: get to the start line uninjured.
I got in the first year I applied, not sure if that was lucky or not!
If you want someone to do long runs with julbags Ali would love company, I have offered to cycle them but running too far is beyond me! Ali is planning on doing most of her training off-road, that way you minimise injury risk and have more fun!
I will also be doing most of my training offroad as I'm an inury magnet otherwise. I still haven't quite grasped the enormity of what I've let myself in for I think. The weather better not be like today though, I have never been that wet and muddy running, ever.
Good for Ali, I didn't get in.
