    Morning All,

    What: nowt
    Why: Friday = rest day and I'm utterly knackered after the last 6 days of training and racing.
    Last hard run: Did the planned 5x2k @ 10k pace through the Notts Uni campus last night, it was brutal. The 2k repeat ran up and over the hill leading up to Trent Building for anyone that knows the campus. Followed this with 5M easy which coupled with the warm-up and the 6M at lunch brought me to 19M for the day. On my knees, weeping like a child by the time I got home.
    Last rest day: Friday

    Have fun out there ;-)

    Good morning everyone!

    What: Lots of walking (4 miles done before breakfast because it was preferably to staying in bed with a snorer, a snuggler, a kicker and a kneading cat, and another 5 on the agenda for later), and a gentle run with 12-year-old daughter this evening.
    Why: Fat-burning and transport and I've been promising for weeks to take Kevin out for a run.
    Last rest: Monday.
    Last hard: Yesterday's fartlek run (4.5 miles) was quite hard.

    I might finally get round to going to the gym and doing some weights this weekend.

    Goodbye stranger, it's been nice - hope you find your paradise ...

    Am I right NRG-B? (Must be the first time in ages I've recognised the lyrics!)

    What: 3 miles steady.
    Why: Schedule says so.
    Last hard: Probably last Sunday's 12 miler, which for some reason felt 100% harder than the 11 miles the Sunday before.
    Last rest: Yesterday - had planned a run, but hectic day at work and going to bed late on Wednesday wiped me out, so decided to rest instead!

    Have a good day guys. Enjoy the mild weather while it lasts as apparently we're in for some arctic conditions next week!

    Morning all,

    Very pleased with last nights track session. Did 4 x 1600m, and at a pace slightly faster than last weeks 5 x 800m, wihich is very pleasing (although I was handicapped by the weather last week). I was by no means going flat out, so there's plenty of room for improvement. Legs still feel a little tired this morning though.

    Today: nothing
    Why: Friday is rest day
    Last hard: track last night
    Last rest: Wednesday

    Was hoping to do my weekend long run (16m) tomorrow, but it's looking like it might be Sunday now. No matter.

    NRG-B, see you at the social tonight. Snail, are you coming?

    Yes, but instead of "get coffee" it's "get tea and a couple of slices of toast"

    Marmite Master - I felt sick just reading your post! There's Portland Hill and the one that runs parallel(ish) to it. both horrid, horrid, horrid. But terribly good for you.

    What. Long run today. Oh, ha ha. I have just seen the paper boy (well, man actually) slide down the road. I am considering ice skates for this run.
    Why: Hal decrees
    Last hard: yesterday - tempo run followed by snowbording on ice. Always hard work.
    Last rest: Wednesday. ICe induced.

    Ah well, it's meant to snow today, so things will improve!

    Have a good day, everyone!

    Morning all

    Goodness me MM, that's some day you had yesterday. I sense that you're responding to WP's incipient challenge to put in "the toughest session yet - match that". Strangely reminiscent of the Horwill-inspired duel between the long missed Drew & Achilles show in the run up to FLM last year.

    Our club run last night was a tough fartlek type approach, rather sensed everyone was searching out weaknesses by throwing kenyan style surges in all the time. HR 20+ bpm higer than I usually train.

    w/e plan

    Today rest
    Tomorrow : Mud, brambles, map and Compass - another opportunity to add to the "runner gets lost" saga
    Sun : 4mile race which I will use as a speed trial. I will intentionally go off faster than ever before and expect to finish as the wandering dead. based on last 10k and the prediction routines I should do 26:30, target sub 26.

    Got my bags packed to set off for a weekend in York, taking in the Brass Monkeys halfmarathon. Intending to do it as a sociable long Sunday run rather than a race, but I'll see how I feel on the day.

    6 easy lunchtime miles today.
