Sam did an excellent Marathon. 3:24. If I had kept up the training that I started with him I'd have got pretty much the same I'd expect. But I didn't. I didn't commit to the goal. However, I did do the 1/2 marathon, albeit without much training. Now is the time I have to commit to doing the training for the Ultramarathon. Like Sam I'll have to simply rely on myself. I can go to the phoenix park for runs. I can enlist Sam or Gav or Karl for runs. It all starts now.
I am currently 13st 11lbs. I don't run regularly. I don't feel very fit. I have sore shoulders and back. It's time I got back into things.
First goal is to start believing I can do it. Next goal is getting together plans, understanding the plans and then executing the plans.
Here is an example of an Ironman that then did the Ultra:
