Marathon runners: How do you handle your long runs? 🏃‍♂️

Just dropped a new video breaking down why I stopped running long runs at marathon pace – and ran 3:19 doing the opposite.

But first, I want to know where you stand.

Results might surprise you. Full video 👇

I took some very helpful advice from yesterday and managed 3.25km consistently before feeling like I needed to walk. I also kept a slower pace from the start. #Running #RunningCommunity #RunningPunk #HardcoreRunning

Anyway...good video, the creator promises that If there’s interest he can tidy the code up and publish it in a repo (github) soon

After a long week without running (but cycling instead), I got back to a 21k workout today. Perfect weather, great run.

Who knew that if you have a little snicky snack (a banana and some rice cakes with jam) instead of running fasted, you don't feel like garbage during and after. #Running #RunningCommunity #RunningPunk #HardcoreRunning
Even though it's next weekend I'm not going to worry too much about the Bristol 10km. I know that I'll get round it but there's no point in worrying about my time because the people I'm running "with" will be showered and going for dinner by the time I finish. So with that in mind I'm going to start early on the Cardiff Half Marathon in October, because I'll then also be ready for the Great South Run a few weeks after. #Running #RunningCommunity #RunningPunk #HardcoreRunning
A little out and back to therapy. I really struggled on the way there but didn't feel too bad on the way back. #Running #RunningCommunity #RunningPunk #HardcoreRunning
