Today's Training

[MickTor]

2 miles slow this morning with mi pooch to keep things moving. I'd like to think I could run 2 miles every morning to start the day but it feels like a bug commitment..!

2 miles - 25 mins and my dog now smells like fox poop..

May take a month off racing after next week and just play 7's rugby over the summer, gets too hot here for any serious racing from now on and rugby will be a good way to socialise and keep fit.

Good week ther IainR.
I dare say that here in Shedfield it's too hot to run!

Steady 2 miles with the dog again. Legs feeling good, looking forward to some hills tomorrow night and a big run or 2 at the weekend!

Morning run with poochy, 2.2 miles 21 mins 300ft and 15 mins on the foam roller afterwards followed by a cool down stretch.
Managed regular running this last couple of weeks which I'm happy with, I'd kind of lost interest apart from weds nights and a weekend day out.
MMA tonight and a rest day tomorrow. Looking forward to a long run on Sunday

Where's that? On the Northern edges?

Not a bad week, its 75-80F at the moment but super humid, just wiping me out..

Monday 10.1 miles 6:10 pace.. totally wiped me out.. Tuesday 5 miles am then 1 mile job to the track that night and turned around and walked home.. just could not be arsed. Yesterday 5.1 miles am feeling slightly fresher and 12.5 last night at 6:55 pace but was again just wiped out sweating so much. Today 7 miles in Philly this morning, maybe a 4 miles tempo tonight but have been drinking all day trying to hydrate..

First mountain race this weekend, its actually a road run, 10k up and down a ski resort.. but technically a mountain race, just US style..

9 weeks with no form of training and started again this week with a couple of 8 milers, only road miles though. God I've lost so much time and fitness and am well depressed.

First miles are the hardest Sore Legs!! Keep at it...I'm sure you will!
