A mere quick one up and down the ramp on Winter Hill for me toneet
Very small but positive day for me. Been out for 8 days after my back muscles went into spasm. Came off the medicine (diazepam and ibuprofen) yesterday and managed 2.1km running and 6km on the bike today with no obvious issues.
Fingers crossed I don't wake up knackered again, as I've entered teenager with altitude and want to start getting some hills in asap!
First weeknight run without the headtorch this year. Gorgeous evening as well. 8.7 miles.
finally found some hills and did 5.5 miles on trails, a whopping 200m of ascent..
Not had a day off for 90 days now, tried to do a speed sess last night but the track was icey and my legs are still tight from the marathon but am going to train with the local running club tomorrow.. I think its the club Marita Koch ran for...
90 days is a good effort Iain. Where are you now? Germany? Well done on the marathon p.b btwQuote:

I do easy recovery runs 3-4 miles as rest days which are needed.
4.2 this morning, steady.
eve: trained with Rostock club... 10 miles nice session, with 3 x 1k with 600 recovery, 5 min jog recovery and 2 x 1k with 600 recovery..
Suited me as legs tired, ran all 3:15/3:20 ish, but not many others, the rest were 4-4:20 k.. but good to have company..
But someone else contacted me and there's an african marathon runner in town who needs a training partner.. so we're getting together.. Rostock is big neo nazi so I'm probably his security...
21 mile in 2.46 to complete the strava long run challenge, longest run ever - previous was 14.4 mile and i did snowdon sunday and a 8.5mile strava segment bash on tuesday... yes i am chuffed with myself!
Tuesday ran 11 miles on the road with rucksack in the morning, in the evening I did a club interval training session 8X1200m with 1 minute rest after each 1200. Tonight did a steady 8 miles with the dogs.
