Lee Sinnott Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I am doing my first ever Marathon in October (Birmingham International Marathon), and just wondering if anyone else on here had done one before and, if so, did they have any tips in terms of training and recovery, diet etc? I am doing it, along with the Oldham 10k, Manchester half marathon and Yorkshire Tough Mudder, to raise money for Alzheimers Society so, if anyone wants to donate, I'd be eternally grateful... https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Patrick-Harwood1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Sinnott Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 As a side note to this, what an absolute honour it was to be in Manchester yesterday and to take part in the half marathon. The support out on the roads was unbelievable and you'd have to have been made of stone to not be choked up at some point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went and did some cycling in the alps a few years ago, which was quite tough, and needed to recover pretty quick each day ready for the next. SIS recovery drink is bloody brilliant for that. http://www.scienceinsport.com/uk/shop-sis/rego-range Good luck. I can't imagine just how hard running for that long is.

Lee Sinnott Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 There's been a murder and now a stabbing on my training route over the past two weeks. I'd like to plead my innocence... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I ran a mile and half up Huddersfield Narrow Canal on Tuesday and my legs are still knacking. Fair fucking play to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
