My boyfriend and I have registered to do the London Duathlon as a relay. He'll do the cycling and I'll do the running.
I'm worried I've let myself in for too much though. I've only done one 5k race before as I'm new to all of this - this time I'll be doing the 10k and the 5k. I'm looking forward to building up to do the 10k, but I don't know if I'll recover enough in the half hour or so break to do the 5k aswell. It's in September - have I really left myself enough time?
After the 5k, I got really slack, so I took the plunge on Sunday and treated myself to some running shoes and my boyfriend is coming up with a training plan for me, with some help from runnersworld.
Is it possible for me to do it? I'm not bothered about the time really, although I'd like to do the 10k in under an hour...
