Hello, all
Welcome Dan.

It's easy for good intentions to fall away after a marathon. Even though most of us feel fired up after completing one, we tend to take a few weeks off to recover and treat ourselves, and this is often the start of a downward spiral.

Different people have different suggestions to this, but many of us think that the best thing is simply to choose a race to aim for, look at a few training schedules, plan it all out on a spreadsheet (in my case), and before you know it, the motivation comes flooding back.

The other really good help is to join a local club if you've not already done so. You're in Maidenhead, aren't you? There are a few good clubs around there. It helps to get you out the door and, as I've found, forces you out of the comfort zone we tend to settle into.

Keep us posted.
