TF's Marathon Training

In response to EtU's request for additional suggestions in his posting of 03 June, how about this:

Locally to TF is a circuit from Four Lane Ends on the A6, via Plodder Lane, Watergate Lane, and Salford Road (A6) back to Four Lane Ends. The distance is 2.4 miles. 11 laps are, therefore, a marathon, more or less. Parking a car anywhere on the circuit marks a starting point and, of course, provides a drink and food station at 2.4 mile intervals. It also provides a point where the number of laps completed can be recorded. This can be very useful as tiredness creeps in. I did as I have described when training for The London and found it to be a very good system. If Julie were to try it, gang members could work out a rota system to accompany her.
