What: 6M easy (giving the county champs a complete miss - had toyed with the idea, but I'm not one for giving any thing less than 110% in races, and it would have set me back a bit)
Why: Building a mile a day back from illness
Last Hard: 12 days
Last Rest: Tuesday
MikeB , your nightshifts sound a bit like mine used to be .
I also plan to do an easy run as I did 2 hours xc earlier following the previous days steady 15 miles on the road (in a split session with a 3 hour break!!)
You could say that I'm starting to take my running slightly more seriously!! (I may even change my website...but I doubt it!!)
Time for bed , I've just noticed the time!!
What: 7.5 easy am, 5 easy pm.
Why: recovery day before long run tomorrow
Last hard: Sunday
Last rest: 25 days.
What: Kent County XC champs this afternoon.
Why: one of my fav events & my 18th year in a row. Really not sure how it will go, but it's a case of finding out!!!
Last hard: Thanet 10 4 weeks ago.
Last rest: yesterday
Sorry MikeB that your not making yours but glad to see you back running.
I've a busy weekend ahead, so a race report might have to wait until tomorrow pm!
First time I have posted here.
What: Yorkshire XC champs today
Last Hard: Hill session six days ago
Last Easy: 40 minute amble around part of Cleveland Way in the snow 3 days ago
Last 2 days have been rest.

brrrrrrrrr
WHat - 10 miles steady
Why - Early phase of FLM training just trying to get about 60 a week in.
15 miler for me, first time over 13 since September. Time to start cranking up the miles.
Have fun.
Good luck to all doing the x-country champs today. It seems that all x-country champs around the country are on today. I wonder is there a reason for this?
Good luck to all other racers too!
What:swim at lunchtime
why:I can't run today as I've got pain in my leg and don't want to aggrivate it. Can't cycle as it's raining quite a lot here, so swim it will have to be.
last hard:a while ago
last rest:exercise everyday, but last run rest was Wed.
Still not running, back gone as well cold still active, but very excited as I may have discovered cause and effect, might have discovered something that "works" to prevent trouble, and am reasonably confident it will be better in short order.
And many thanks for all your good wishes. Hope to run again on Monday.
What:Just a little game of snooker today and then off to a rugby game.
Why:Because the golf course is closed.
I just chill out on saturdays before the long run on sundays.
Have done 24 miles mid week(thats a record for me),if i do 14 tomorrow that will be my highest for a week too.
What: Wilts X/C Champs
Why: there's a first time for everything
As I'm typing this I've just looked out of the window and noticed a few flakes of snow falling- perfect cross-country weather!
I'll report back later........
What : 3 miles easy
Why : Did it on Thursday,new year's resolution
Next Plod :Tuesday

Good luck to Exile and Big Tim in your XC races today.
Hilly I hope it stops raining so you can at least get out riding.
Barnsley Runner congratulations on getting through your 1st 120 mile plus week.
What: 10k at tempo pace
Why: 10 mile race tomorrow
have a good day everybody
What: 1:45 to 2 hours steady as soon as I finish this.
Why: flm training starts here and I need to get the long runs going sooner rather than later to compensate for a ski trip in mid-February.
last hard: wednesday
last rest: thursday
Best of luck to other racers today & tomorrow.
I didn't realise how gentle it would be. My legs felt like lead. A minute a mile slow.
It doesn't bode well for the 10 mile race tomorrow, which I wanted to do in 70 minutes.
Feedback from the high milers & speedies appreciated.
Anyway- you know what they say- bad dress rehearsal- good first night.
Hello Hamers Boots- hope you're going to be a regular, seems you're not far from me if you were doing Calderdale Way Relay, we had a team in (Dewsbury).
What- well feeling great this morning- resting heart rate down to 41 lowest it's been all week, so I will get and do the 15 miles easy, which gives me tomorrow as a rest day with just a swim in the evening.
Good luck to the racers and get well soon those on sick leave.
What: 7m easy
Why: mileage building and my favourite conditions - cold and dry!
Last hard: Thurs
Last rest: Wed
Last cheesy pasta: yesterday...and relax!
what: nothing
why: feel awful, hardly slept. hope it is not going to hang around.
good luck at the county xc's all running, and hope everyone else has good runs/recoveries over the weekend
Andy
why? well i was planning to do the milton keynes duathlon but its icy and i am a complete girlie wuss so i bottled it and went for an easy recovery run instead. sore shins and knees today though.
long run tomorrow.
last hard: wednesdays speed session
last rest: thursday
good luck all xc'ers (i remember it being a bit chilly for the county xc last year too!)
What: 10 miles done, another 9 tonight
Why: weight loss and aerobic base building
Last rest: 7 days
Didn't finish work until late yesterday, so the evening 9 didn't happen. Grrrr
Look forward to hearing the X-C results later.
What: 12 steady miles in 2hrs 11 mins. I suppose I could call it the first of my marathon pace runs.
Cool damp day here in Aberdeen but no snow or ice.
Good luck to all racing today/tomorrow.
Speedy recovery to the sick.
what: rest today as I have a long one tomorrow.
Have a great day!
8m completed with club this morning. God, am I slow at the moment. These injury niggles are certainly hanging around.
Stickless - hope your 'cure' works.
HM - Welcome!
