How does one train for a four day run!?

We have no idea!  Well that's not entirely true, but this is going to be quite a unique run as we will be running in shifts over the course of four days.  The plan is for one person to run five kilometers while the other person is support team in a lead van.  Every day we will run about 30+ kilometers each, depending on our stops.

As of now, Marc and I have been running since the beginning of August while training for the Singapore Marathon. We plan to continue our long runs through the December holiday and into the new year.   I will be running the Chiang Mai Marathon in Thailand on Christmas morning.  We have been following the good ole Hal Higdon marathon training plan.  It has served us well and is a great training plan to follow.

In early January we will be having an all day fundraiser run where our friends and any interested runners come out and simulate a day on the road with us,  i.e. running 5k then taking a break while others run.  This will be followed by an evening of dinner, drinks, discussion and hopefully donations!

Look for the Bangla-Dash on Facebook for pictures, videos and more updates!
