Paula and Thommo's pre-Christmas shakeout answers your running questions and reveals a quirky injury Paula picked up just before a world record breaking run. There's a fair amount of marathon talk, including dealing with the mental aspect of setbacks and decline. One of the community is pondering running the Manchester and London marathons, which are within a week of each other. Family and friends are telling him not to do it, but Paula and Thommo put an alternative view. There's also a question about breathing exercises and using a chest heart rate monitor.
