The marathon is just over a week away on Sunday 18th April 2010. If, like me, you are running, then you are probably ‘tapering off’ – a term I hadn’t heard before but which means easing up on the training and giving your body time to recover and begin the ‘carb-loading’.
The start of the race is Preston Park, so for us Prestonvillians, it is a leisurely stroll to the start either to take part or watch.
The start is at 9am but there wil be road closures before this. A complete list of roads affected throughout the city can be found on page 8 of the Essential Information document [pdf].
If you are running – good luck. If you are watching – give me a cheer – I’m number 3224!
