    Re: A year of running every da

    It's catching Stolly - See what you have done to us!!!

    I decided to run every day in September - which I did as already mentioned on this thread. Since then, in October and November, I have not had an unbroken run of runs, however the very few days I have missed (maybe 4 or 5 in total since 1st Oct) have been due to having no spare time whatsoever - I can't imagine just not going and sitting in front of the TV or something anymore :thumbup:

    I am yet to have a day off in December :closed:

    Stolly ahh, the mists have cleared, have noticed your improvements in the Esk Valley Series races, good on you. You have hit on something though, (just chanced upon this thread) i've enjoyed running alot more when the training pressures aren't there so much, will do a weekly track session, but the rest of the time (mostly) its steady trots at a pace i fancy and the running just becomes enjoyable.

    Consistency is a key feature of good training, so that actually probably without thinking about it you build a good base, naturally become fitter and the running becomes easier (and more enjoyable).

    Running everyday mmh......

    Indeed Tuffer, gives you a good baseline to work with if you want, or just go out and enjoy if you don't to do any more than that

    They certainly do Stolly. I'm not sure I would have kept it going if it wasn't for them

    13 runs done in 13 days. Tonight was tough after a seven hour drive largely in freezing fog but the job's a good 'un still :thumbup:

    Re: A year of running every da

    This thread got me thinking about how often i do run, upped my game to 5 days a week rather than 3 or 4, with the aim of consistency peppered with quality sessions/races to up the fitness.

    The festive race begins this weekend in North Yorkshire with the Poultry Run (not fell but multi-terrain and a seasonal favourite) joy
