Im sorry but in no way is it just in your head, I bet someone with no training would struggle to run a mile at a 8 - 10 minuete pace, theres just no 2 ways about. Train and live or dont and die really

wrong, it is all in the head.

The human body can far exceed what the mind thinks it can, take free diving for example those guys don't have huge lungs but they have got a mental state that they can slip into which allows them to slow there heart enough and hold there breath.

In running you feel pain and you think your muscle has had enough running so you stop. but the pain is the minds message of telling you to stop it doesn't mean you have to stop. If you block out the pain and the tiredness you get a second wind which allows you to keep going.

i did two half marathons last year the nottingham half and then a smaller local one in december between september and the second one in december i proberly went out training about once a week. i still did a sub 2 hour time on both the second one was only slower than the first by about 8 mins but i had an ankle problem.

In my opion u will not even get close to finishing with no training. If u think u could go out this week and run 10 miles if u can do 10 which at the end of the day its not even half of what your planing on doing. If your a fit person ie play a lot of sport ie football, rugby, hockey you should be able to do it IF you pace yourself but i almost be certain that you would not beat someone who has been training.

thats my say only an opion but an informed one i am studying a level pe and iv run a lot in my relatively short life.
