Yeah...I'm starting out behind the bunny, but it kind of beats getting a head start and THEN getting sick a few weeks in.  Hopefully I can stay healthy this Winter and laugh at the Bunny in a few weeks as I pass.

I know what is coming in April Jerry  but how do you plan to get there?

Any clues on weekly mileage and what it will be made up of?

 Well April is an interesting little number with my numbers (in miles) below:

Jerry, those dates (format) confused me until I realized you live across the pond, and I'm from India and I should know better. 

 

I plan on doing 750-800 miles by April end as well, in a slightly different way, with a longest run of 15 miles.

 Cool, we either have a RA 1500 mile race or a RA 1500 mile buddy run until April.

I love my 20 mile weekend runs, especially around where I live in the Garden of England .....careful I may go wax lyrical! but it just pushes you past that 16-18 mile mark where all things metabolic start happening. It would be good to see your workout just to get some ideas how other people do it + I better get a Swamp vest before too long

 

Would that be a 24hr race?

The Crawley AIM 12hr track ultra.

I ran it last April and Jerry very kindly came along to support me, and helped me around the final few laps.

Jezzah's goal is to crack 100km in 12hrs.  Not as easy as it sounds..... actually it doesn't even sound easy.

I never thought I would be seen to do this but I am now running with a heart rate montor on my easy runs to make sure  keep in the zone to get benefit from my long training runs.

(This will be shared with RA UKers)

OMG I will never here the end of it

 

Base rate this and Maxed out that, Zonal aerobic optimum utilisation mumbo jumbo

I get the feeling that that would be like sharing something like that to the "Swamp".  Good luck with the UKer's, lol.
