I think it’s worth taking a moment to reflect how far you’ve come since that first meeting we had. To be at this stage, primed, not only for your first marathon, but to run a really strong time. I think there’s definitely a sub 3:40 in there, and in the future even quicker if you wanted. But pacing is everything. Get that wrong and everything goes to pot. Going off too fast is so easily done, especially at that stage when you feel strong and it feels easy. It won’t come mile 20, trust me on that. But fantastic work on completing the plan so well and very best of luck for Sunday. Reach out if you want to chat beforehand.

We’ve made it. So exciting. The biggest mistake is going off too fast, know your pace and stick to it, even if it feels super easy. You’ve trained well, now just go and execute. Best of luck.
