Training for a marathon is daunting – especially London Marathon. Around 50,000 runners will be taking part in the annual race, and it's only a few days away – but I'm ready.
Rewind to New Year 2023, I tentatively started my 16 week training plan, which involved four runs a week at varying speed and lengths – and at the end of it I'm supposed to be able to run a marathon.
I've done a half marathon previously, so I knew it would be hard – but what I wasn't prepared for was all the pain and niggles I would be experiencing along the way.
