On September the 21st myself and my friends Ian Ling and Charlie Hare will start our first of 4 marathons over 4 days as part of the Great barrow challenge, in barrow in Suffolk. In a bold statement my aim is to do a quicker time each day with the final run being my fastest!!It remains to be seen if I can achieve this but I will certainly give it a go!!
We are running in aid of the charity "everyman" to support those who have been unfortunate to have been affected by testicular and prostate cancer. I will soon post a link on here with the details where you can kindly donate to this worthy cause if you wish to. Every penny would be greatly appreciated!
Marathon and endurance running is something I love and also something I train all year round for. But this event will really test me with limited time to recover each day before we are back out on the road again the next morning.
I completed my first big distance run this Sunday since I did the London and Brighton marathons back in April. I ran 16 miles in a time of just over 2hrs 15 minutes. As it was the first big one in a while I am quite happy with the distance and time, feeling strong right until the end.
Keep posted as I will be logging all my distance training as well as giving advice on distance running, the right clothing and footwear as well as nutritional advice when taking part in an endurance event.
Speak to you soon!
Glenn
