Subject: long run

hi i am currently training for a marathon in october as yet i haven,t started on any long runs  ie 10miles plus. i run 6 days a week between 3miles and 8 miles per session i also cycle every day(commute12miles each way] and a long distance ride every other weekend 100miles +. i have a holiday home approx 90miles from my house and i was wondering how achievable it would be to run this in 2 days at the end of july .any advice would be gratefulty appreciated..

thanks

dude, I don't know. I mean you sound like a fit person but 2 back to back 45 mile days would likely crush you, or anyone. I doubt there is much you can do to adequately prepare yourself given your training except gradually work up your long runs over the next 4 weeks. but how gradually can you go in 4 weeks.

You might consider fast-walking it. But that's still a LOT over two days. Maybe combine biking & running?
