I can’t believe I never saw it before!  I’ve been using my Garmin Forerunner 405 for a little while now and I didn’t realise that there was an option to post your runs on your website with very little hassle!  See, I’ve been doing images etc and cutting/pasting and it’s just a lot of work.  Turns out I can just display one of these:-

What do you think? Frankly it’s a bit of a relief and a time saver!

As for the run this morning, it was okay on the “out” part and the coming “back” was a bit more difficult. Still ended up doing quite a bit of walking but average pace still came out at about 06:23 min/km. If I can finish a marathon at that pace I’d be very happy. That would put me at about 4 and 1/2 hours I think but I’ll problably end up doing the marathon at an average pace of about 07:00 min/km.

I know feel more tired and sore than I have ever felt in my whole life. It makes me wonder how a full marathon is even possible and it certainly makes me have more respect for the people that run them on a regular basis.

If you have never run a full marathon, you gotta be prepared for the mental and physical pain! I never would have imagined it was as bad as this!

However… the sense of achievement when I get back from these super-long runs is amazing. I mean, each one is just a little bit further and it makes me feel amazing knowing that I’ve managed to go that far! Me!
