Mmm whats better?

Posted on July 12, 2018 by shazruns

26.2 miles of 5441ft of up down, down up, up down, up down or and repeat (Tsunami marathon elevation)

OR

or 26.2 miles of 5,256ft with a little up then some nice flattish miles before hitting a 4 mile hill at 18 miles? (Snowdon Trail Marathon)

Mmmmm, I am not sure, but will let you know next week!

I think it must be like taking a plaster off where clearly there are just two types of people…..the rip it off get it over with in one go (with the bonus hair removal system thrown in) person or the one who gently eases each corner of the plaster up screwing their face up in pain with each tug. Trouble is I cant remember how I remove a plaster! Personally I am hoping with every fibre of my being that I am a second option kind of gal.

(Plaster = Band Aid depending which side of the pond you are on!)

About shazruns

I have been running since 2004 when I decided to do the Race for Life, as a close friend was terminally ill with cancer. Following that I did a couple of 10km at Leeds castle and Sandringham. Then in 2005 ran my first London marathon, then another in 2007 in blistering temperatures. I have entered the London marathon every year since but have been rejected, am now find maintaining my fitness & motivation hard, so when the email came through about Janathon I thought why not! Am hoping this helps with fitness, motivation and weight loss!! Wish me luck!
