Hi all.
Iv literally in the last week started running, so far so good im loving it. I know the London Marathon is in a few days and accept that im nowhere near the fitness level i need to be capable of finishing with a respectable time.
Im trying to get a base level of fitness in me before i start going too mad with my training but was just wondering what a good time frame for training for next years would be. Is there a genearal rule in running of how long you give yourself on the run up to the event (excuse the pun) or would i be ok starting now and just picking up the distance and pace every few weeks?
Any advice or criticism welcome.
Cheers.
