Introduce yourself + What time are you looking for?
I'm Steve and I'm running the Greater Manchester Marathon in April as the first significant step towards my three year goal of completing an Ironman. I've run several half marathons before, but have never stepped up to the full distance. I've also never shifted the weight to compete properly so this time I'm going all out…

What plan are you using?
My plan is the one that was sent to me by the organisers. Its a beginners schedule that involves 3 runs during the week and then a long run at the weekend. I like the fact that it mixes up some speed work with standard runs. You can see it here…

Blisters
After my first longish run today (7 miles) I came across the old enemy blisters! Has anyone got any good advice about how to deal with them - to pop or not to pop etc. Or is it just a case of man up and carry on?

InspirinIng Reading
I'm reading Survival of the Fittest by Mike Stroud and I'm finding it really motivational. What books keep you focussed on your goals?
