Once again I would like to apologise for the lateness of this issue, I was aiming to get out 4 editions in 2007 but several factors (excuses) meant that this plan went “t**s up”. I will be endeavouring to get back on schedule for 2008, so get those articles, race reports, jokes, funny stories, pictures and results to me for inclusion as soon as possible at [email protected] Hopefully everyone had a successfull and injury free year of running in 2007? Personally I had a decent enough year, running small personal best times at all distances raced and, most importantly, I managed to avoid serious injury. However, how I managed to avoid hurting myself never mind how I got home in one piece after Bjoern Reiss’ leaving night drinks (pictured right) I’ll never know. My excuse is that I’d been in the pub all day, without food watching the Scotland v Ukraine match so by the time I’d met up with the others I was a wee bit cumbersome on my feet. Thanks to Bjoern for the photographic evidence. Inside this issue On the back page you will find a membership renewal form for 2008.

    Evening Standard Date: 13th April 2015 Readership: 900,000 London Marathon 2015: how to survive the long run before the big race Eat porridge, apply Vaseline and don’t give up: Peta Bee asks the experts for a score of tips By Peta Bee With months of training under their belts, the remaining barrier before race day is the run of around 20 miles that faces the 38,000 London Marathon entrants. It is a pivotal part of preparation, providing a dress rehearsal for the big day and, hopefully, the first real inkling of proof that you can make it. Exercise scientists are convinced of its merit. In preliminary research conducted at last year’s Virgin Money London Marathon, researchers at St Mary’s University, Twickenham, found that runners who have not managed to complete a long run of around 20 miles are more likely to experience high levels of fatigue and even to hit the infamous wall during the latter stages of the race. So how do you prepare? He we provide expert advice to surviving the long run: 1. Check the weather A study in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research last year showed it has a dramatic effect on marathon pace, particularly among men likely to slow down if it was warm. Researchers said: “Women tend to have a larger surface area-to-mass ratio than men, allowing them to dissipate a larger percentage of heat produced by running.” 2. Weigh in John Brewer, professor of applied sports science at St Mary’s University, Twickenham, and a marathon runner himself, recommends weighing yourself before and after the run.
