Reading Half Marathon April 2nd 2023

In preparation for The London Marathon I decided to enter The Reading Half Marathon with my training partner Millie.

In preparation for the London Marathon, it is always good to do an event, helps with the race build up anxiety, planning, logistics etc. Millie had booked the Reading Half Marathon, so I decided to push myself out of my comfort zone and join Millie.

Bib ready!

It was the flattest run I have done for a while and with the 20 mile training run the week before I enjoyed the reduced miles. I planned to stay with Millie the whole way, but after about 6 miles, I broke away and settled into a pace - soaking in the atmosphere, giving me a ‘taster’ of what The London Marathon will bring!
