I just did the Paris marathon yesterday. Left foot a bit swollen this morning (particularly the big toe joint - what's that about?) but other than that I'm actually feeling pretty good. Got a sub-5 result which I'm very happy about but I know is nothing compared to people on here; however, almost 12 minutes quicker than last year - and I didn't even train as hard. Thanks to everyone for all their advice :-)

Thanks. I just watched the video - and have to say it makes a lot of sense! Training for a 10k and you do 2 miles a day.... Training for 100m and you do a max of 30m. And then, training for 26m and you have to do 20m?! I'm convinced :)

I just got back from le-bal.fr where there is an exhibit called "Scene" by Alex Majoli; it was magnificent. If anyone manages to get to Paris before it closes, I highly recommend going (7 euros, full price, 5 euros reduced). Majoli is an Italian, member of Magnum (I hadn't even heard of him before going) who, for this series, used an extremely powerful flash in capturing the images.
Various links:

Thanks very much for the advice. I feel good and bad... Last year I did my first marathon, partly as an attempt to give up smoking. 5:10:24 and was very proud, although would have liked to crack the 5h mark actually. Friend egged me on to do it again this year with her which I stupidly agreed to. Kept up running for a bit but then relapsed on the smoking over the summer and was pretty heavy with that up to the beginning of this year; needless to say, I didn't do any running during that time! Started off the year ok with some fresh determination, spurred on by another friend who encouraged me to do a 10k in Rome with him towards the end of January. 60:00:26 which I was extremely happy with as I was expecting more like 70 minutes - especially given the fun times I'd had over the winter period! Anyway, have increased rapidly since then, probably way more than the 10% rule (anyway, is that 10% distance per week, or per long run, or what?!). Hindrances have been work (24h shifts every once in a while) and holidays (diving!) whereas help was the glorious - but scary and unseasonable - weather recently. The HM this weekend will be an "easy" week after the 17m last weekend (and a planned 18-19 the week after), then one more long run after that and looking forward to the taper before hoping the weather warms up again a bit in early April. Aside from that, just planning on doing some intervals if I can fit them in - but all depends on "outside" / other committments.
Anyway, great thread (like so many others on this forum) and love picking up tips from reading even if I don't post so often. Thanks to all!
