            thanks guys. current plan is to keep it at 20-25 sessions per month, at extended duration. with 15k i'm around the 1 hour mark. weight loss goal is 3-4 more kilos, to get just under 90kg.

              I'm currently Wk 4 of Manchester Marathon training plan. This will be my 3rd Marathon, really enjoying the training and seeing proper progress. 18km done today.

                    Deadlifts today - Did 90kg which is new PB. Tried 95, got it halfway up my calves on the first attempt, barely lifted it off the floor on the second 🙂

                    Tiny steps.....

                      Awesome @Giles. What is your sticking point on deadlifts. Sounds like its from the floor to mid shin or knee. Make sure you keep pushing your legs into the floor constantly through the lift. Do not even think about your back. Think legs pushing down into the floor.

                        That was the sticking point. I will try and do that next time.....

                          Sorry to be hogging this thread, but the mere fact of documenting what I am doing is added inspiration to try harder.

                          2 weeks ago, my PB for leg press was 12 reps at 173kg. 10 days ago, I failed at 183.

                          Today, I did 213kg and felt I could go further.

                          I am frankly amazed.....
