Greetings 
It's been a while... but after a year off sport (marriage, baby, new job.. you know!) I'm dusting off the sneakers.
Target race is a ~flat Marathon on the 22nd October, with a longer game of the 2018 London Marathon, which means I need a sub 2:45 to qual. Hoping you're still around an fancy helping keep me on track?
I'm going to keep in Swim/Bike shape as I have a few fun races in the calendar this summer, but I'd like to focus this forum 100% on running if that's ok with you.
I've completed a 4 week build up & one cycle which ended with a 16:59 5k park run last Sat (3:19, 20, 28, 23, 26). 1k's were 5x3:20 & a 3:15 to finish. 2k's were 4x7:00 & a 6:50 to finish.
Weight is good ~77-78kg... parenthood stress seems to help with that
I did a long run yesterday (2h of hills, mostly with the running buggy) and quads a bit sore so plan to skip long run tomo and do some gentle jogging before kicking off the 2k's on Thurs. Gunning for 6:50s. Sound good?
