13 in 13 Marathon No.3 – Saxon Shore Marathon

The next race for the 13 in 13 challenge is the Saxon Shore Marathon. This race is a small one where it is limited to 25 people – there are two events on the Saturday and the Sunday. Some people are running a marathon on both days which is called doing “The Hardcore Double” – Danny and I will not be taking part in this – running one a month is enough for us!

Although this race has a cut-off time we are both confident of getting under it. Rather than being 5 hours like the Luton marathon the Saxon Shore marathon has a more generous limit at 6 hours. This will be a tough race though as only 40% of the race is run on roads, the rest is on trail and sea wall which has very sandy soil and compacted shingle, gravel and dirt. We’re not sure if this will be as hard as the Brentwood marathon but we’re hoping not as that one was a killer. The one major issue we both have with this marathon though is the start time – it’s scheduled to be 8am!
