We're still on leg 3 and are reckoning that we need to be at the change over for about 10.45 to be absolutely safe. See you there on Sunday :)Quote:

11.1 miles/3266ft in 1.57.28.29 was looking to dip under 2 hours, so more than happy with that.
Knee survived but I don't think I'll be running tomorrow.
11.5 miles circular run mainly off road along the Rochdale canal and dirt tracks to Hollingworth Lake . Most enjoyable :)
13.5 mile Mickleden Straddle Recce
steady pace, but VERY wet in places (as usual)
7 miles lunch time (flat road); off in a bit for the club session (4x6min efforts + warm up and cool down - again flat road).
Cheers - Raymond
8 miles in Tatton Park. A lot of trees down in the woods which were closed (but I didn't see the signs;) ).
The ground was surprisingly firm, a big contrast to Heaton Park last Saturday.
12 miles along fields and canal
loads of wildlife tonite, squirrels,rabbits,swans,birds,quite mild as well :)
no wind or rain
legs still tired from sunday
1.8 miles last night, 2.6 miles tonight. Hardly worth bothering with! :(
hows the injury ????????Quote:

Thought I'd better put a quick post up here, before I get another"niggle" and wander back to the "Today's Injuries" thread!!
Managed 55 mins (to and From our club run). Ran steady, but REALLY enjoyed it after 3 days on a residential course with minimal running opportunities.........woo hoo!!
Nothings hurting, but not really going far enough to test it properly. Might try a 5 miler tomorrow to see what happens.Quote:

Cracking night for it as well.
Thanks a lot Sarah.
Those of you who have been thinking about it should stop...TURN UP NEXT WEEK...YOU WILL ENJOY IT...GUARANTEED!
Thanks for listening.:) :D
It was 9 miles undulating road at training tonight. Noticed quite a few folk (including me) were taking it easy, saving themsleves for the Mixed Team v Male Vets mega battle at Mary Towneley.
For some reason the evening club session was changed to 12 x 2 min efforts with 1 min recoveries....which was nice!Quote:

Just found out our team came second (from last) in the Northern X/C Champs at the weekend. I don't think age was on our side with a 6 man team aged 49.49,54,55,59,64
5.75 miles off road around Boarshaw clough and Hopwood woods. Most enjoyable.:)
Won't tell you about my trianing - but
I saw Daleside out running this evening!!!
(going past Tesco at 5ish!) very exciting:)
It's Wednesday so 10miles on road.
Didnt know whether to run steady/hard or hard/bloody hard. In the end i ran it quite hard. Was on for a 59 at halfway but then it was headwind back home so it took me 14 seconds over the hour. Damn
February sees the midweek 10 go up to 12. Hecky me!
10 miles on road for me as well
loads of chavvies out tonite
5 mile at lunch, 1st 4 fast-ish.
Swam this evening, see other thread...
Went a bit nuts tonight, managed 16miles 2200ft on roads. Im doing my long run tonight instead of weekend when its the bridleway relay.
I did not feel to bad, good rest now till sunday, perhaps have a doss around 5 miles with the girlfriend on friday.
No Chav's they are to soft for the rain
6 hilly road miles followed by a session at the gym.
Feeling good - Raymond

pm 50min progression run on roads starting at 6:15/mile and finishing on 4:50/mile. By 30mins we were at the bottom end of my tempo range (around 5:20/mile), and progressed right down to the top end, finishing with a 4:50 last mile. We covered well in excess of 9 miles in the 50mins, even with the steady start. 15min jog to finish.

Northern Cross Country. Second attempt at the taper with a rest day two days before the race. Felt great again and I think after all these years we've finally got the taper right. Absolutely delighted to finish 7th and 20secs off 3rd place - my aerobic fitness is pretty good now but I haven't done any structured track sessions yet and I've still got a bit of weight to shift from taking a break at Christmas and abusing my body LOL!! I start sessions again on Tuesday and have three good weeks mileage ahead now so I would hope that by the time my next race comes around (Inter Counties) I will be in very good shape, then its just a case of holding it or keeping progressing until London.
Sun
am 1h50 flat off road run, with a group of Sale/Alty runners. Fancied a fell run but legs needed a flat run after yesterdays race.
pm 30mins very easy on road
Weekly Mileage: 72
No running yesterday for me as I was late getting back from work!:mad:
Thou the plus side my fixie bike turned up so I spent what remained of the night putting it together and then went out for 40 mins!:D
What a laugh, can't remember cycling down a slight incline creating such a grin on my face!
Thou its bloody hard work on the hills, it'll have me fit in no time I reckon!
Just need to remember to not stop pedalling! :eek:
Am planning on 10 miles on the road tonight!
6 miles off road through Alkrington Woods this morning, don't know what's up with me though as i felt as rough as tarzans feet throughout the run.:confused:
Another steady trog around the village - it's getting to be a habit. :)
Did anyone else have an incredibly bright moon last night? It was like running in daylight (OK not properly) with a clear shadow and everything.
Lovely. :)
What fixie have you had, Calf? I've got an knackered old MTB converted to fixed and another road-bike work in progress. Easily the best fun on two wheels! :DQuote:
