I did 5 ish hill sess on new hills (for me) in town. Cold and wet but hard work and fun. Odd at the moment seem to bad having a good day followed by a bad day, so just go with it and ease along.

Cheers !, Which Marathon are you doing Jason ?, and what time are you looking for ?

4.2 miles , very easy 8.00 mile pace

Sunday Duddon Valley fell route 20 miles.......Monday am 8.5 mile hilly route 6.30 pace....Monday pm 4.6 mile inc 10 1 minute intervals.......Tuesday am 20 mile Cycle +Core Session at Gym..Tuesday pm 8 mile Fartlek road run.

50 mins on an excercise bike... achilles fine, bum not! Tried switching to a treadmill... bum fine, achilles not.:mad:

Warm up, 20 mins hill reps, fall down:eek: ;) :D

Undulating (210m climb) road 8 miler in 8min miles, feeling comfy after yesterdays sess.

All this is aiming for the Lakes Classics via the Windermere marathon. Not sure about time as it is quite uppy-downy, and I have a tendency to drift off on long road runs. Anyway I would be happy with 3:30 but who knows?

Feeling good overall
Jason

52 mins to Post Hill & back via field paths.
