Back down to 3 hours for this Sunday.
Really enjoyable 13 miles over Lochnagar just outside Ballater. End of a big week for me anyway: 75 miles on the bike and 43 running, mind you, a fair ammount of plodding was done in the last few miles today. Good though.
Managed 50 minutes this evening after work on tracks and moor and up & over Hambledon. Good chill out session after being couped up inside since half 5 this morning. Was the warmest & sunniest bit of the day looking at the today's weather graph too.
Tried some reps today.20 min warm up,although that was 2.6 mile/900'
Then found a loop of about 400 yards,approx 120 down,200 flatish,80 steep up to finish.4.30s blocks x 6 flat out.Worked out about 2.45 on with 1.45 rest.Pretty happy,flat out with last rep only 3 secs slower than first.Went back same way as i came.
My garmin 305 didn't seem to like the dense woodland i did the reps in,got back expecting to see 6 stages of consistant peaks and troughs but even the map route changed for each lap.Very dense with over hanging canopies so not too dissapointed.:)
A slightly easier than normal Monday 5.4 miles at lunch time and 5.8 miles after work.
A light 4.5 mile up and around Pex Hill this afternoon.
Track session at Sports City.
5 x 300m, 3 x 500m, 5 x 300m, 3 x 500m, 5 x 300m.
Somehow managed to stay dry when training.
10 Miles this afternoon after a day shopping in Liverpool. Tracey took Olivia home in the car whilst I ran from the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool.
I headed off up Mount Pleasant and past the Universities and then out along Edge Lane and onto the Rocket. From the Rocket headed through Bowring Park and into Huyton then followed Tarbock Road to the M62 Motorway Junction. From here I headed along Cronton Road and back into Cronton. A nice run today with fine drizzle all the way which was nice with odd heavy shower. Still a warm afternoon.
6 miles of towpaths and roads , felt fine , and praying pf doesnt return
Thought I'd add my training to this thread, as now I'm properly training for something...
Yesterday - 7.5 miles (road). with 4.5 miles - RTYP
(which means; run till you puke:))
Although stricktly speaking I managed to hold it in.
Today - Recovery.
