After much procrastination on what big race to run next, I signed up for the Sydney marathon today (last day for 'early bird' registrations too)!
I've been following a marathon training plan on the 'My ASICS' app since May, so preparation is on track but will just need a little fine tuning now I have a race date locked in. As much as I like the My ASICS app, and it has been very useful in guiding my training for previous HMs and marathons, it is limited in being able to make changes. While I could start a new plan on the app, this would kick me right back to the starting 'preconditioning' phase, which won't work for the September race date, as I am about to move into 'race simulation' phase! As a work around I have manually rescheduled the training plan to, hopefully, have me fully prepared and perfectly tapering for 18 September.
So I'm looking forward to running across the Harbour Bridge and past some iconic Sydney landmarks in my next marathon adventure......
