And I was very good about my swimbling today
*wibble*
See, look - here's me, going out the door...
*checks to make sure the Hobbit has left the building*
OK - I'm going, I'm going....
Massive Garmin malfunction - all human error, too
; I set up a workout of 6K repeats with 5min recoveries, but obviously set it up wrong, as after the first interval, it asked me to do the next one straight away! Clearly, I had set it to do 6x1K efforts, followed by 6x5min recoveries instead of 6x1K efforts with 5 min recoveries. Oops.
So I had to record each repeat as a seperate run. From my hodge podge of data, I get this information for the Km repeats:
1 - 4.52 - 173bpm
2 - 5.00 - 173bpm
3 - 4.53 - 176bpm
4 - 5.02 - 174bpm
5 - 4.56 - 175bpm
6 - 4.59 - 173bpm
I still feel slow and heavy and generally a bit rubbish.
HR seems a bit up but if you say you felt slow and heavy maybe you are not over all of the ick yet.... recovery run of about 8 tomorrow at a steady pace please then we might do something short and sharp friday before having Saturday off and doing 21k on Sunday at a fair old lick
Eight is fine tomorrow - any target pace/HR?
I want you to go and enjoy your run tomorrow five miles of fun... do what you want.. few sprints, chase cars, run backwards.... get some of the enjoyment back because I want you to bleed from the eyeballs in Liverpool,,,,,
I know I'm being negative, it's just been a bit of a naff day at work and I'm feeling down about Liverpool, too - I just don't think it'll be speedy. Sorry.
Ten miles done today at about 9:40 pace
Not really fast enough for what I want
You ran long at the weekend didnt you Mike
Run done - took the Little Bear with me, and a ball, so when we got to the water park there was quite a bit of play*
1 05:48.2 09:20 144
2 05:54.3 09:30 148
3 06:25.8 10:21 150
4 06:14.7 10:03 150
5 06:34.0 10:34 150* playing ball
6 06:24.1 10:18 151
7 06:33.5 10:33 151
8 06:30.7 10:30 149
Summary 50:55. 10:10 149
Tomorrow could we do something short and fast......or short and hilly but with the Half on Sunday lets stay away from hills....
5 min warn up..... nice and steady
1 min flat out
3 mins rest/jog recovery
repeat x 5
5 min warm down
So you can take Bear to the park and make him chase you
parkrun and 20 slow miles for me this w/e....................I'm hoping for some decent weather
Will do, Plum
Good luck with the Parkrun and 20, Ricky - any targets in mind?
Hi Frodo,
Good luck this w/e mate - hopefully you will be getting back to your best shortly
No firm target really - The McMillan calculater tells me I should be running my LSR anywhere between 8.10 and 9.10 m/m - I suspect I'll be somwhere near the higher end of that range on Sunday. I'm keeping everything crossed that it goes well and I stay fit as I had to defer last year with Gilmores Groin.
Good luck this w/e everyone
*heads off to facebook*
I shall let the Hobbit tell you what she has done today........
Not happy
I know, I know, silly of me
tomorrow's is part of my club's grand prix series so I want to take part (Surrey spitfire 20)
and last weekend I really wanted to do a 20 because i hadn't done one yet
so there it is
rest day today, if anyone sees me doing anything strenuous please stop me
and <cough> I did 6 x 1000m last night, contrary to advice from Womble
I can't be told
Sorry to hear about the ankle, hobbit
it's awful when the lovely books turn on you
hope it's just bruised
