To take part in your event without risking your health, you need to be able to comfortably
run the distance. This means you should feel you could run a bit more at the end
of the race. As a guide, during the weeks before your race aim to have run:
- 7 to 8km continuously if taking part in a 10km run
- 8 miles continuously if taking part in a 10 mile run
- 11 miles continuously if taking part in a half marathon
If you can’t manage this distance, you may not be able to complete the event
safely and probably won’t enjoy it. Please do not run this time.
