Day 6 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 30 minute incline walk. Weight loss mode for now! I have a minor knee injury, so keeping things light and relaxed until that's fully healed. Aiming for proper regular running schedule by early December.

Day 5 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 Another day, another incline walk!

Day 4 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 30min incline treadmill walk. Lost 0.5kilos last week. More to come!

Running X people. Marathons or anything, reach out! 🏃 I’d like to follow (no follow back expected, though it would be nice 👌). I’m training for the 2027 London Marathon - need inspiration!

I kinda miss the days I'd log into Twitter and see arguments about JS vs TS, React v Angular, OOP v FP. Now it's all "Have you tried X skill / harness?" or "Model X just released! Look how quickly it automates all that hard stuff you cared about before :D" Different world, different forms of thinking and skill now. I'm not arguing against it, but I do miss the old ways.

As a developer do you visit the London Aquarium? 🐠

Ok soooo I’ve joined the work gym now, which has a bunch of treadmills and is conveniently very near where I work! Good place to train for the marathon in the colder months. I have a treadmill at home, but it’s pretty hard to get up super early to use it.

Day 3 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 Woke up late and didn’t have much time. 10mins on the treadmill incline walk. Just showing up today.

Day 2 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 Rise at 5AM 🕔 Tough incline walk on the treadmill, 20% incline for 20mins at 6kmph.

Weeks 1 to 4 Start Date: 27th Sep 2026 Weight Loss and General Strength Training - 3x Weekly 2kg Dumbells full body routine, including goblet squats. - 3x Weekly 20min minimum incline walks at 20% incline on a treadmill. - Diet: A sustainable, but fair diet... -- Eliminate refined sugar (avoid sweets and chocolate where possible). -- Eat whole foods where possible, avoid takeaways and high fat, low protein meals.

Officially kicking off my first ever marathon training! Day 1 of Training for the London Marathon 2027 Worked on some light weight training, including squats and full body exercises, using only 2kg dumbells. Recently had a shoulder and back injuries (all muscle related) - these are all almost gone now. But I am above average BMI and slightly heavier than I should be, this could impact how easily I can train, and puts strain on the knees, shins and feet when running if I'm carrying more weight than I should. So for the next few weeks it's weight loss mode! Incline walks instead of running (more effective at weight loss) for now, paired with light weight dumbbell sessions and most importantly, a mindful and sustainable diet (part inspired by my nurse girlfriend!).
