She didn’t go out fast enough for sub 3. That would have been some epic negative split if she had! Reckon her next Mara she will def go for sub 3, but she will need to train at faster paces if she’s going to do it (not the easy runs obvs)
That's amazing and so fast, truly in aweyes and I don’t think she’s trained at fast enough paces to run sub 3 yet. She’s need to run about 14 secs per mile faster to get a sub 3 from where she is now. And that is not easy over 26 miles!!
I’m a woman and much less go under 3 hours than men, it’s quite a big difference. I’ve placed around 60th female at London before, and in the same race when my male friends ran 5 mins quicker than me, they were like 1500th male or something.
Thank you! That bloke sounds like a dick! Some of my male club runners moan “how easy” championship entry and GFA is for womenThat's amazing and so fast, truly in awe. I could go on with a huge list of my pet peeves but most of them relate to the ignorance about womens/mens athletics 'women run slower because they're less competitive' (fuck off), 'that's not that fast, I can faster than that' (a guy having no clue that a guy running a fast km is not the same as a woman running that speed for long distance). I once had to do a mile for time for an unrelated sport which requires good cardio (for US college team), I got placed in the section with all guys (about 20) and of course all the men started sprinting and gassed after 400m, as I'm running I start picking off the guys and some unathletic guy has the audacity to patronize me with 'good job, keep it up!'. When I got to the end some guy asked me 'what time did you get?' me: '6 min' him: 'that's not possible, that would place you as a top female track athlete in the state, you must have miscounted a lap' (my time was measured by the coaches too). That still irks me massively because it's completely untrue.
I reckon womens sub-3 is equiv to men's 2:35? and men's sub-3 womens 3:35 (just going by Boston qualifying times).
She’s pacing her sister at Geneva marathonis she racing another marathon this weekend?
Ellie Dickinson? why choose an egotistical twat like him to be her coach, when she most know some of best training staff from time on podium pathway The fact he has told her to aim for 1.27 because that's his PB just shows how egotistical unpersonalised training is.Surprised to see a former team gb ex endurance cyclist is using Lucy and Ben as her coaches for upcoming half marathon attempts, she seems to be on a plan which involves cross training and treadmill running daily despite been injured. I know elite athletes, particular endurance athletes have different tolerances but this particular women had a baby 12 months ago and surely under the podium cycling programme for years, she had access to best training staff. It makes you wonder why she opts for a influencer duo coaching plan.
She's spoken about this she was on contraception I think the pill and recently came off it and this is normalWhat’s the instagram for her? Curious to see what kind of training they’re putting together for her. What a bizarre choice of coaches

Also, I’ve just seen this in her stories - first period in five years? Does anyone know if there was a reason behind it? It makes me think she’s not as healthy as she’s trying to make herself out to be
yes, she meant she's not longer with the BCP. The bleeding you have with the pill is not " a period".What’s the instagram for her? Curious to see what kind of training they’re putting together for her. What a bizarre choice of coaches
