London Marathon Training Runs
At the end of January, February and March we hold our (almost) world famous London Marathon training runs. They increase in length to coincide with your training plan, the first is 12 miles, the second a 17 mile and the third is a 20 mile. The course is mostly on quiet country roads (that will be open to traffic) through the stunning Ashridge Forest with a small section on the towpath of the Grand Union canal. The routes are fully marshalled with water stops and at the end there will be a steaming cup of tea and a mammoth cake waiting for you!
