I think Steph is purely training for a marathon? And Lucy is training for a few different things

Yes but they’ve both said separately that the minimum they have to run each day is 17km, I just thought that was very specific and coincidental for both of them to say which makes me think they’re training for the same thing. Something Nick Bare related I’d imagine.
I think lucy will easily do her goal of 2:54. Berlin is flat and she’s done the training. I think she will do closer to 2:50. Plus she’s got the mental strength which means A LOT in the marathon
I think she is going for 2:50 and just not saying it. Sub 2:54 is very arbitrary. She should do it. I mean, her job is basically to train!
I hope he's better than that Ben I noticed Ben has taken to do a new podcast and he is so Andrew Tate loving it's frustrating she's lucky she didn't have children with himLooks like she has a new fella!Happy for her!
Yeah I think it’s sub 2:50 goal too
She’s gone out as fast as Lizzie Dimond so def aiming around the 2:45 to 2:50 mark. She’ll do it as well.
The tracker has her estimated for a 2:55:02 finish currently
Lucy is the sort of athlete who would negative split so I wouldn't count her out just yet
2.56.33
So the 2.54 was a realistic goal, I bet she will be reattempting before year out

Who's calling Valencia? I'm genuinely surprised she didn't hit the 2:54 and from early on wasn't on track for it, but then anything can happen in a marathon and from memory, I had to weave a lot in berlin! Especially the first 10k!!!
Was she running alone? She has lots of quick male friends who she seems to train with, i wonder if one of them paced her
If they paced her, they need sacking!
She has just done down in my estimation by quoting her "Strava" marathon time.
Don't be one of those people Lucy!!

I’ve run a 2:51 marathon according to strava. My actual pb is 2:54 at London. I would never ever quote the strava one!!! (In fact I just had to go in and see what it said it was)
I’m surprised she wasn’t quicker to be honest. V surprised! Obviously still a very rapid time but I just think the training and athlete mindset / history would get her there.

Wholeheartedly agree. She was very vocal about going sub 2:54 but never really seemed to be on for that? Either she was aiming for a negative split or maybe last minute change of plan. And the "heat" that melted my UK mates won't have bothered her with training in Texas. Will be interesting to read her right up.
FTR my "strava" marathon time is 2:49. I am absolutely nowhere near that! Cheers canary wharf for the mid marathon 4 min miles
Is she still friends with Nuttyfoodiefitness (Steph)? Both in Berlin, no mention of each other. Also is Kim, Lucy’s boyfriend? They seem very close
