I'm running London as a 10 min mile pacer for Runner's World so it'll be like a long training run. I've been injured for the last 3 weeks and only started back running yesterday so it's fingers crossed that I stay injury free until race day. Following that it's off to Peru for the Inca Trail Marathon at the end of May. All the best John Hi Aisling,

I really enjoyed the flat course of Amsterdam last October and you should feel the benefit of the course. I'm running Conn and doing the WW trail the week after (more of a jog for me that than a race). Training for Conn has gone well for me. I've averaged over 70kms a week and over 1000m ascents per week on the Wicklow roads since the start of Jan. Most of that running has been solo and I didn't have anyone to coach me apart from myself but still I'm very happy with how things have gone. I've done 3 runs on consecutive weeks of 33k and the taper is now on. Conn is not a run for a PB but I feel I can do a better time than I've done before there. A 3.30 is achievable. Anything better would be a great bonus. Cheers, Mick Hi Ais,
