GSR Half Marathon 2012

I’ve entered the Great Scottish Run Half Marathon which takes place on the 2nd September 2012.

I’ve run the Great Scottish Run twice now, once in 2010 dressed as Supergirl and again in 2011 with a Saltire cape on my back (having completed the 10k before it!).

Routes

Over the past few years, I’ve got a few training routes together which cover most of or all of the route.

I’d suggest covering the route 2-5 times before the actual event (see Specifity of Training as to why this is helpful):

• 7.5M GSR Half Marathon Training Route
• 9.26M GSR Half Marathon Training Route
• 10.8M GSR Half Marathon Training Route
