Training...

Generally train on weekends doing 6km runs on average

Planning to train every second day doing a 3-4km run every second day

(Must be careful not to over train as I'm still growing)

In the lead up to the Easter 3 Days I do 4km runs daily for 6 weeks.

Likewise for schools but for 8 weeks.
