      I’ve been running half marathons for the past few years – my first one was the Great North Run in 2012 and since then I’ve raced in Gateshead, Vienna, Copenhagen and Berlin. I love the escapism of running, and I always have good music on when I’m racing!
      I want to run a marathon, but maybe after the PhD when I have more spare time to train. I’ve entered the ballot for the London Marathon next year, and I want to run the Budapest Marathon in October 2017. It’s just such a long way! I run half marathons in 1hr40mins at the moment, so I would want to run a marathon sub-3hr45. Will just have to wait and see!
