Ljubljana marathon race review

The Happy Runner ·

2023/10/31

I trained for 14 weeks, my training went good and I was ready for the second marathon of this year. But sometimes not everything goes to plan … so we need to adopt and do the best we can. When running marathons we mostly have 2 or 3 races a year and if something goes wrong there are not as many chances to get it right. But still we need to stay positive in make the best out of it. Not everything went the way I planned in Ljubljana. I had issues almost from the start. But I was still able to run a

How to run a sub 2 or sub 1.45 half marathon

The Happy Runner ·

2023/09/19

I know, if you want to run a sub 1.45 you need to be 15 minutes faster then those who want to run a sub 2 hour half marathon. But the training structure itself is not that different for those two time goals, that's why I decided to talk about both in the same episode. The biggest difference are the paces you'll be training (or running) at and the longrun. The longest longrun for a sub 1.45 half marathon should be over the race distance but for a sub 2 hour half marathon 18k will be

Marathon training update

The Happy Runner ·

2023/09/05

After 5 weeks in my marathon training for Ljubljana marathon end of October it's time to talk about my training. I had to deal with quite a few situations the first 4 weeks, so my training was far from perfect. But in the end we don't want to have a perfect training. What we need are consecutive weeks of decent training. Being consistent week after week and getting all those kilometers (or miles) in. The last week at last was a decent training week for me. So right now I'm in a happy

It’s OK to have a bad run

The Happy Runner ·

2023/08/29

In a training block that's going over several weeks, we have good runs but also some bad runs. It's perfectly OK to have such runs. In the end they will make us even stronger. What's important is, how we deal with such runs. I had one just a week ago, a good example. I know what went wrong and why ... and I know that I will not repeat the same. Because if I would the same run would not go to plan even the second time. We learn from such runs, learn on how to adjust. If you want more
