At the time of writing, it’s just over nine weeks until the London Marathon, which I’m running. It’s my second marathon, and it's a big one: the London Marathon is a much-coveted race for runners all over the world. It’s one of the World Marathon Majors, along with New York, Boston, Berlin, Tokyo, and Chicago, and a bucket-list item to tick off.
Of course, running a marathon requires a lot of things, like lots of food, a healthy dash of crazy, and a tolerance for the sickly-sweet taste of energy gels. But to train and race effectively, you need a little bit of technology these days, too. Here’s what I'll be using in my capacity as TechRadar’s fitness editor, from the best running watches to the best running shoes.
