Musketeer, does that mean you won't be doing Amsterdam? How many long runs do you do before a mary?
Higs, thanks for that, am hoping to sit down this afternoon with a diary and sort out the long runs, then fit other stuff (life) inbetween! LOL I may not be popular with the family!!!
Hoose, rest days are good!
Going out later for a few miles if everything goes to plan!
Tigger, 95% of doing Amsterdam full , but if there is a groundswell amongst my fellow club members to do Nice mara , then it may only be the half in Amsters as that would fit in
not enough long runs but 1x 18, 1 x 19 and 1 x 20. At the moment my priority for next year will be to get as close to 1:40 for a half and hope that the marathon time will improve on the back of that. I would sacrifice long runs if a potentially quick half was on the cards when the schedule says LSR (but I am going to do Tour of Tourfaen as it is downhill!!)
Thanks Musketeer.
LOL at doing the Tour 'cos its downhill! Thats my kind of philosophy.
LOL
would be a tad soul destroying I guess!
yo dammers
a week in and a getta bug. Couple of days off already
hope training for rest of you is going well

I should be running tonight, mountain biking tomorrow and resting Sunday. Something urgent's just cropped up work-wise so it looks like I'll be working all evening now, biking tomorrow and running Sunday instead.
By the time we line up this in 11months time I doubt this minor re-shuffle will have an effect.
ooh heck higs - work can be a pest.
mind like you say re-shuffling at early stages probably wont have an effect.
I have re-shuffled too, work manic today, felt waaaaay to tired to run.
47 weeks 2 days to worry yet!
Have no cubs tomorrow, so I WILL sit down and write the plan. I almost wish I hadn't asked how many long runs, if I had just written them into the plan I wouldn't of counted how many!!!
Its all in the head, its all in the head, its all in the head....................
Higs, hope the achilles is still behaving.
yo dammers
Tiggs -it is all min the head
no plod for me todayt. Hopefully one tomorrow.
hope all enjoyed theirs
Afternoon!
A touch windy here today, was a rough night with gales and rain....
Sunny at the moment so will head out soon!
lol
i need my arse kicking fropm the word go
Hoose,
consider your arse kicked, get out there tomoz!
The achilles is fine thanks - pretty much everything else seems to be complaining about my (latest) return to running but the achilles isn't a problem at the moment.
H. wrote (see)
Absolutely. It's all about short term goals at the moment. Langley 7 on Saturday. Then I'll step up to a 10. After that a half (or two?) in the Spring after which it's time to get my head down for some serious marathon training again.Morning all.
Higs, isn't it amazing your body can find so many ways to complain about exercise. After my achilles problems I had Plantar fasciitis...... Grrrrrrr
Enjoy your runs today everyone, blowing a gale and lashing with rain here.
bit windy my end tiggs. Mind OK outside
I aint had any running injury for years. Dunno why?
TeeHee!
oi
have been on and off for 15 years yer buggers
Is a long taper good then Musketeer?
yo tiggs
moff for lickle plod now
Morning all.
Was out on my MTB last night and had a bad ride - the downs were as much fun as usual but the ups were a real chore. I don't feel ill and I've not been overdoing it (either running or in the bike) so I guess it was just one of those unexplained crap nights.
Anyway, nothing too severe planned for now - a 4mile 'tempo' run today (will be interesting to see what 'tempo' I can reach) and then a couple of days rest before the Langley 7 on Saturday.
sorry you had a bad ride Higs. Hope tempo goes better.
my run cut short as coulnt stop coughing . Felt OK bodily but not quite over virus, I guess.
have a good day
