10 weeks

OK tri season is now over and after 1 week of no training I am about to start my 10 week training plan to take me to my first ever marathon! I'm really excited but also feeling nervous that 10 weeks really isn't going to be enough time to achieve the goal I am aiming for (sub 3 hours)! My coach thinks otherwise as I have the run fitness and a reasonable amount of running miles already in place and its just about making it marathon specific. I'm still keeping up with swimming and cycling training - especially my swimming! Apart from needing to keep this up as I have big plans for tri next year I think the cross training will hopefully help to stay injury free.

We shall see. Watch this space.........
