I signed up for the Paris Marathon on April 12, 2026.

Jeg har 25 minutter i bilen til og fra arbejde, så jeg lyttede til det i dag.
Det var lidt en rodebutik af en podcast (siger podcast-forskeren/-underviseren), men der var bestemt interessante pointer.
Tak for anbefalingen.
Mega rodebutik! Det skulle jeg have sagt! 🫣

Det behøvede du nu ikke. Det var interessant at høre noget anderledes, end jeg er vant til.

After #WRRC, I went for a recovery run to see how my body was doing.
The verdict: all is good. I felt strong and enjoyed the evening run as the sun began to set.
After around 7.5k, my left leg started to feel tired, and then I stopped running. No need to push it today.
Distance: 7.66k
Pace: 5'08"Malmö Marathon in 10 days.
A short and easy run, where I focused on not running fast.
After a couple of long and exhausting days, keeping the pace down was no problem. I never got past that sluggish feeling you sometimes have on a run. It was how it was.
The setting sun was beautiful, though, and my daughter kept me company on her bike.
Distance: 6.05k
Pace: 5'43"Malmö Marathon in eight days.

Great work!
Must be nice with company! 🤩I hope you keep up the good work, tapering for the next PR in Malmö!!!!

Company was nice - until she decided I ran too slow and then rushed home on her own instead of supporting her old dad.

I started the day with an early long run (to get it done in time before the baptism of my nephew).
It was hard. My left leg felt tired almost before I began, and there were headwinds for the first 7k. Then I did a gazillion(/16) laps on the tracks and ran back home. It got better, the longer I ran.
This was not the run I hoped for, but that is just how it is sometimes. Onwards.
Distance: 21.1k
Pace: 5'49"Malmö Marathon in 7 days.

Are there any track related things that might explain the left leg issue?
Is it under a bit more strain than the right leg doing all the left turns on the track?
I've heard people mention that you shouldn't run in lane 1 for training 🫣
I hope your leg will feel fine soon!
And congratulations with the nephew!

For god ordens skyld: Det nye afsnit, hvor de følger op på #WRRC, var rigtigt godt. Meget bedre struktur, meget mindre snakken-i-munden på hinanden og (synes jeg) betydeligt mere substans. Det var jeg rigtigt glad for at høre i bilen i dag.
-
Det er lidt op og ned synes jeg.
Jeg tror også det må være svært at lave det afsnit før løbet, med alt det pres der er på og tanker der flyder ud over det hele !

Helt sikkert.
Og så er jeg jo professionelt fascineret af, at de ikke lige starter hver episode med at præsentere podcasten og sig selv. Jeg har den i mit feed nu, men de gør det ikke så nemt for nye lyttere at komme ombord. De laver den tydeligvis mere for sig selv end for lytterne - og dén passion har jeg stor respekt for.

Jeg synes, som ren amatør, også at det er sjovt at gøre hvordan forskellige podcasts bliver lavet.
Og høre lidt om hvor meget/lidt tid der bliver brugt for at gøre det "klart til afsendelse".
Jeg stødte på en podcast på et tidspunkt hvor jeg egentlig rigtig gerne ville høre det, men der var en høj frekvent lyd relativt ofte, som jeg tænker man snildt kunne være kommet af med, men måske de ikke selv har hørt den...
I forhold til lyd var dette afsnit godt!

The last shake-out run before Malmö Marathon the day after tomorrow.
Kid was sick today, so it became an evening run (after dinner), and that just never works really well for me. I'm a morning person.
Nevertheless, it all went well. I ran a bit faster than I had planned.
However, my left leg is still not exactly at 100%. I look forward to the race on Saturday, but I recalibrate my expectations and measurements of success.

I'm sure your body and mind will find the right balance on race day, whatever that means.
Sounds like the kid's all right after a day of relaxation

Pace: 5'26"I should race Malmö Marathon today - but my left quadriceps ached too much yesterday for me to go. It's not too bad now, but I won't risk full-on injury through 42.2km.
I really, really wanted this race. I'm doing a lot of motivated reasoning right now about why participating would actually be a good idea.
But it wouldn't.
And I know that. Not participating is the right decision. Better safe than sorry and all that. There will be other races.
Still, in this very moment, my spirit is low.

I'll let Coach Bennet do the talking.

(Just a few minutes)I feel your disappointment, this is not easy.
...and then.
Remember to enjoy life.
Enjoy your family and some cake and a cocoa. -

A short evening run to test my left-leg quadriceps. They still ache, even though I kept it slow. And I only had time for a brief run.
Not doing Malmö Marathon yesterday also means breaking my steak of 83 consecutive weeks with a 21.1k-or-longer run. Truth be told, I'm a little sad about that.
However, looking forward, we're now discussing marathon destinations for 2027. Rome, Stockholm, and Amsterdam are on the table.

I hope you get a handle on the issue you're having! I don't have good ideas, other than trying to talk with a pro if it continues.
