God, yeah, agreed. Apart from habitual drunkenness and chronic binge eating, the great weakness in my marathon campaigns were always beginning an 18 week training plan out of condition, and having to devote the first month or so building up to a semi-fit state -- or just fit enough to take on the lengthening weekend runs. To start those 18 weeks at a fighting weight, and feeling really up for it, must make a huge difference. The major fear for MLCM I guess is peaking too soon. But if that can be managed, and over-training and injury avoided, it looks like there's a stormer on the cards.
Was that a mixed metaphor? My evening is ruined.
