Pro tips
- 01
Know Your Distance
Longford runs a marathon and a half marathon on the same day, so confirm your entry and line up for the right distance rather than following the wrong field.

Race the 15C Window
Typical race-day temperature is around 15C, close to ideal for distance running. Start in light kit instead of overdressing and you can hold your pace.

Peak Through August
The race falls on August 29, so summer is your build: put the longest runs in the warm weeks and ease down in the final days before the start.

One Day, Two Fields
With both distances on the same date, the town and finish area will be busy. Sort your warm-up, kit plans and where you'll meet people before the gun.
