Hello and welcome to Nick Scannell’s marathon blog.
I am writing this to show people what goes into a marathon effort so you will be more willing to donate generously! Make sure you check out the fantastic projects currently taking place at AforH UK on the website.
I’ll start by thanking all at Architecture for Humanity UK and everyone who’s supported me. This is my first marathon so please feel free to comment if you have any advice or experience.
Here’s an update on the last few months;
I started with a fairly good base level of fitness around November. My training schedule has been 4-5 sessions a week. With a relatively accurate record I can estimate my total miles to date as in excess of 160. That is strictly road miles and doesn’t include cycling, swimming and circuit training that I do regularly. I like to mix it up. I am now at a stage where I plan to increase my training so as to peak at the right time!
I’m going for what might seem an ambitious time for a first timer, but why not aim high! 3hrs30mins is my goal. With seven weeks left let’s see what I can do!
