Madrid Marathon Training News and Weather!

I have been very busy with my running over the last week :-)

After my very long run I ran two 5k's. After that I've been training hills very much to prepare better for the Hills of Madrid! Then I've run a 10k on Saturday, had a very hard hill training session on Monday, have another 10k run on Thursday, and around an 18k or so run planned for Saturday or Sunday. 

After that more hill training and a couple of 7k-10k's before I leave for Madrid on Thursday 19th April :-)

As you can imagine I'm keeping a very close eye on the weather forecast......

Well it's looking ok. Not cloudy as I would have liked but 18 degrees isn't too bad. I'm sure that temperature will rise though in the days leading up to the marathon....

  2. You seemed to have gotten much more solid training done this cycle. This should serve you well!

    You still have a lot of days for the weather to change to be even better 8)
