I cried at an army volunteer person at 25. That was after a hissy fit at 18.
Yet I live in a hilly AF area and but I obviously forgot because I did it all again the following year.
Her training seems very flat.
I cried at an army volunteer person at 25. That was after a hissy fit at 18.Chester marathon is not an easy course. Hill at the start, mile 18 and mile 25 with long lonely straights. However there are about 3 miles from mile 2 that are downhill and people get carried away and burn out.... its not a forgiving course at all. Could be interesting. She has potential to do very well but needs to be realistic and carb load properly!!
She was very much in the camp of not fueling during her ultra training, but I think she finally realized she can’t keep going like that. She’s been flogging My Protein gels lately…can’t imagine they’re any good at allShe’s definitely also got the advantage of being a high level competitive athlete from a young age and the mental strength which comes with that… but marathons are hard whatever the course, so will be interesting to see how she copes with the challenging hills etc. And yes, I’ve not seen her talk much about fuelling and that really is key in particular for those last 6.2 miles
Didn't even realise MyProtein did gels 🫠 I can't imagine they would sit well!!! Chester don't have the biggest amount of toilets on course!! 🫣She was very much in the camp of not fueling during her ultra training, but I think she finally realized she can’t keep going like that.

You’re making me reminisce- it was 10 years ago and my first marathon 🥹. Start of the long declineDidn't even realise MyProtein did gels 🫠 I can't imagine they would sit well!!! Chester don't have the biggest amount of toilets on course!! 🫣
It was a familiar sight last year running past guys climbing over fences in to nearby fields...You’re making me reminisce- it was 10 years ago and my first marathon 🥹. Start of the long decline.
I remember lots of guys using the hedges.
I can only assume that the high elapsed time in her 30k was due to her taking gelsHad to look up the myprotein gels at that, they look pretty standard so will probably be fine if she's been practicing with them...they do a pre-workout one as well though which I expect would definitely make you shit your pants
She already is!! I can’t bring myself to watch any more of her YouTube videos but they’re awfulOh she will preach, I’ve no doubt about that

Did she get pacing advice from Wellogs?3:19:02 for Lucy today - I know it’s a hilly course but would you slow this dramatically?
Same. She hasn’t posted much so I assume she’s not as happy with her results either. Otherwise we will never hear the end of it from hereIn the middle of what I’d thought she’d do. Kind of relieved she didn’t run a championship time as she would have been super smug / annoying about that
