Because 10k's are for wusses
"But then this whole training for, and running a marathon, is pretty cruel and unusual."and you have done it before!I did a long run yesterday. It was ok, a bit slow ,no real drama but totally and utterly boring.I don't want to run for three hours or more just to train. This will be my first and last marathon and to nick a phrase from Steve Redgrave;"If you ever see me training for a marathon again you have my permission to shoot me".
It is mind-numbingly boring on the long training runs.The only distraction you can get is the onset of some ache or pain - hardly something to look forward to!
