How I'm training for my next marathon

And what ideas you should steal from me.

I’ve signed up for my 22nd marathon. Unlike many of the races I’ve done over the years, I didn’t share that I had signed up for this race on social media. Which, for me, is actually a good sign. It tells me that this is something I feel protective of. But I wanted to share some thoughts here with you, because many of you have shared the goals you’re working towards this year.

I thought about whether or not to train for a marathon this spring for a long time before committing, and I even started training for a couple of weeks before actually signing up to a race. Because I’ve spent so long pondering if and how I’ll train for this race, I thought I’d summarise some of that here it’s useful to you now or in the future.
