ENIGMA FORMULA ONE MARATHON 21/07/24

Something has to change. I return to one of my old stomping grounds, Caldecotte Lake. I've run four marathons here in the past, including back to back marathons on successive days. The last of these was in 2016. I don't care what time I run, I just want to get round without having to stop for a loo break. The day before, I eat a very modest breakfast then just have boiled rice with a bit of pesto and soy sauce the rest of the day. In the morning I have half a white brioche roll with tomato. And that's it. It works, I complete the six laps of the lake without a stop and I am able to take on a mixture of Ucan and Maurten gels. Another super slow effort at 5.12.49 but I don't care. Mission accomplished.
