you may need to walk about in them quite a bit first WP to get used to the feeling before you try running in them, also see if you need to take out the whole of the original trainier insole to accomodate them
keep the FLM pic refs coming in, nice ones wardi and nutty last night. must say everyone seems to be looking nicely relaxed, bet you didn't feel it though ;-)
good luck to NZC for tomorrow, with a bit of luck you had a decent night last night?
what - 40 mins steady
why - easy day
last hard - fast bit yesterday
last rest - 2 days
lyrics - no sorry
have a great friday
Gentle 8km yesterday morning followed by physio. Enjoyed again the 'pleasure' of a metal hook being driven into my groin and along adductor. He also had a go at taping foot to see if that could take any pressure off. Idea is to give another week or two and if not then on to cortisone injections with rest.
Did 12km this am at a bit faster than recovery pace for first time for ages and although leg sore, easier than it has been.
Simon
NZC - Good luck for tomorrow
What: 5km - LFOTM Hyde Park
Why: Because its there
Last Hard: Wednesday
Lyrics: Not yet
SImon-that hook thing sounds AWFul!!!!!!!!!!!
good luck to the serpie runners
and thinking of NZC tomorrow
Hmmm, metal hooks in the groin - doesn't bear thinking about really!
Pammie - good luck for your 5km today.
I took 30 seconds ish off my 10k pb last night. My watch said 54.55, which IS my 10k pb, but the course was at least 0.1km too long, if not 0.2, according to everyone I spoke to, so I'm assuming I pb'd.
What: a swim this morning and then a 15 mile turbo time trial later
Why: schedule
Last hard: last night, doing 180 degree turns round cones in the 10k
Last rest: tuesday
Have a good day all.
Is Roturua approaching - Good Luck NZC! I guess with Roturua you can literally smell when you get near the finish line?
SiT - yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaow - my eyes are watering reading that.
Trinni - :-)
What: 2km swim d&d, a short run tonight
Why: Apparently TimTheDog is coming to stay this weekend - he's not going to be happy about the amount of cycling we've got planned!
Lyrics: Think so...
The sun's coming back today - hooray!
Major shudder to stick.
Best of luck NZC. :0) Really hoping you get a great run.
How did IW get on?
No training yesterday at all. Too many other things going on, no time and no energy either. Trianing has all gone to pot this week.
Today
What; def a run of some sort
Why: see above para
Last Hard: Wednesday
Last Rest: yesterday
yesterdays lyrics were Berlin - Take my breath away. I was on nights and watching Top Gun. I am sorry really I am.
What: 3.31miles d&d
2-5pm easy
Why: easy day after yesterdays first hard
Last rest: Saturday
Last hard: yesterday
lyrics: no
Good luck NZC
What: 6 miles slow
Why: mileage (and I remembered my kit today)
Last hard: Wednesday
Last rest: yesterday
Last lyrics: Wednesday
Shaping up to be a lovely weekend, unless you are running a marathon...
After 4.5 weeks of managing to follow my training schedule I'm half on the bench for a couple of days. Shin splints have been made worse by each run this week so resorting to turbo and gym work until Sunday.
What: 42mins turbo am, 60mins cardio in gym pm
Why: Banish the shin splints
Last Hard: First upper body workout in 4wks at circuits last night
Last Rest: 6 days
Race well and enjoy the weekend. Hoping to pace someone round Stratford Mara on Sunday. See if I can hit Gobi's perfect pacing of 1:29:30, 1:29:30 for 2:59.
I'm running the Neolithic the following week at a more casual pace.
AF your shorts certainly got lots of pics!! Great pics
RFJ you too (not the shorts)
Hope popsider and stickless's dogs are ok
Hilly, I was so so happy, after all choc and alcohol were on the horizon;)
SIT ouch!
Pammie good like today! My club capt does that he's 72!
What: nothing
Why: still don't want to
last hard@ sunday
last easy all week
I can't believe I am behaving so well with my body this week! Hope I get pay back next thurs at the Dome! Time I have to get is 24 - 24.20 I think
Happy friday all
wardi - great pics of you especially the one with purple balloons coming out you head!
Nutty Runner lovely pics, you are even beaming at the half way mark!!
What: 5 miles
Why: Recovery
thanks WAbo. Did I mention we had to leg it a mile and a half to the start because London was grid locked?!!!
I enjoyed Sunday. It was hard but I am so glad I didn't pull out which is what I thought I might have to do because of an old injury flaring up because of the sprint across London!!
Good luck NZC.
Everyone's pictures look good though.
The sun is shining again- have a good one everyone!!
Bit cloudy here. It would be nice if there's some shade on Sunday. Please?
V-rap: I'm 1169
A friend/ collegue of my husbands came round yesterday to lend me his £1000+ triathlon training bike. He even took me out for a few mins to teach me how to ride it. I was going to do my tri with my mountain bike, but he reckons the difference in bikes will save me 20mins on a 35km cycle. How nice is that?! I've only met the guy twice, but here he is lending me his bike! Some people are so cool.
What: probably a 2 mile jog later on
Why: just to remind the legs and lungs what we're doing
Lyrics: No. Thus ends my 2 day streak.
what tri and when ??
A rest day for me but a few moments to pop in while the little fellow sleeps.
Did just over 3 miles last night, but had to stop twice during that to regain my breath and try to get rid of stitch. The current stitch I'm getting is so sharp that it's difficult to breathe through it and I get to the point where I can't actually take in a proper breath unless I stop. Not sure why this is happening but we will persevere. I'm enjoying running again though - oddly I seem to have lost any competitive spirit for the time being and am happy to just run for the sake of running.
Must go again - Kit's waking up and just gave me a big grin when I walked in to check on him. He is SO cute!
Good photos everyone. Really enjoy seeing the people behind the names.
NZC - Hope you have a good run. Will be thinking of you.
Pammie - Best of luck in your 5k.
Nutty - Have just seen an article in our local paper about a couple of marathon runners who had to run 6 miles to get to the start because of problems with the trains! I think I would have probably cried! Makes your time even more impressive. Well done!
What: 7 miles easy
Why: LSR tomorrow
Enjoy the day all
Thanks Happiness. My little jog seems nothing compared to theirs!!!
Flyaway - glad to hear you are feeling better. Are you doing the marathon? Good luck.
Nearly the weekend! And it's payday too so the day has started well...
Nutty: Great pics - they are almost interactive - you can tell how far into the race you are by the amount of orange in the bottle! COnsidering you also ran a 27.7 mile marathon including grid locked start I think you can put that down as a pb of sorts!
SiT - I've just crossed my legs in sympathy. Ooouch.
NZC - Good Luck tomorrow!
Flyaway - some people are so generous.... watch out for that pothole......
As for me:
What: 5 miles recov +6x100m strides
Why: Recovery
Last Hard: Tues
Last Rest: Last night
In two minds today about my training, as I'm following P&D I have a 8 - 15K "tune up race" scheduled for tomorrow and recov today but as I don't have a race entry I might follow AF's (very succesful it seems) idea of swapping Friday and Sat over and do the recovery tomorrow prior to Long run on sunday. But that means hammering it a bit today, and not sure I've got the energy! We'll see how I feel later.
Ooooh long post, sorry.
Happy days y'all!
FIN
SiT: ouch
IW: well run
MtB: hope the shins clear up for sunday
What: nada
Why: rest day
Last hard: last night
Last rest: today
Lyrics: think so
SiT, that conjures up the most unpleasant Tarantino-esque images :oS~ Yuck!
Great news on the bike, Flyaway! And I'll be looking out for you on Sunday.
It appears that I looked far worse than I felt on Sunday, but the day also generated my favourite-ever race photo. A naughty Fetchie snapped me claiming a full-on snog at Mile 22
http://www.marathonfoto.com/order_my_photos.cfm?BFI=6okgdr6m1t&Language=en
Today ...
What: 2 hours at 75%WHR.
Why: Tentative attempt at a LSR, and because eL Bee! has loaded my HR zones into my Polar so I can.
Last hard: Wednesday.
Last rest: Sometime last week.
If it was a genuine reverse taper, I'd be doing a long bike ride today, but there isn't time.
Happy running and resting
Ref the transport on FLM day. I saw some green start runners legging it by the 6 miles point to the start. There was no way they were going to get there for the actual start. I felt so sorry for them. What a day for London transport to mess up. As I said had it not been for the local knowledge of friends I'd have been stuck as I had no idea how to get to the finish with the DLR down and India tunnel close along with some tube stations.
Pammie - run strong!
what:am 4 miles / pm 6 miles
why:regain lost fitness
swim: 800m
bike: 35km
run: 12km
It's on June 10th. I found out about it because we go swimming at the pool it starts at, so saw the entry forms. I honestly dont know how "big" an event it is.
Nutty Runner: Yes, i'll go and give it my all on Sunday. Hoping for a GFA time.
FINgers: What did make me laugh was the small aside the guy had to my husband along the lines of "if she breaks it, you're paying for it!!" hehe.
cool, I am racing for a laugh this Sunday so a fun report will follow on Monday.
I can't swim and I don't ride my bike (46miles this year) but I can run a bit :¬)
I had heard you were a keen jogger....
Some great photos from RFJ, Wabo, AF and Wardi. My official ones can be found under surname Pearson, runner no. 29016.
What: cycle 20 miles
Why: tri training
Off to Flamborough this weekend for some cliff walking/puffin watching with Mrs Podro. It is our anniversary - 20 years since we met and 16 since we married. Enjoyed (almost) every minute of it.
