I would really like to try and get my times down for my 10k:Just at the moment I can do a 10k in 55mins on a good day:And about 60mins on a not so good day.I am averaging about nine and a half min miles,sometimes 10min miles.Not doing any marathons at the minute,got rejection from london.Thinking about doing edinburgh again in June.I tend to suffer from illobital band syndrome:When the miles get raised.So I am a bit apprehensive about doing any more marathons.I do the stretching exercises for it.I do two speed sessions a week just now.As well as my regular runs which are 5-7:miles.Not sure if any off this helps or not Mike.Any advice is greatly appreciated.Better go because i am in work right now.
Bye daisybop!
Hilly, thank you very much for your support. You DON'T need to run for two hours a day to be any good. ;o)
Minks...see you in London;-)
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
hilly - quick question, you overpronate, don't you? What shoes do you wear for training? I need some more running shoes and am currently in the 'getting ideas' mode - I seem to recall that we've had similar shoe choices in the past (I don't like heavily cushioned shoes and like quite light, repsonsive shoes)
cecilia.morrison@clara.co.uk
Saucony Fast Twitch Endurance-excellent lightweight responsive shoe, but go for half a size bigger than usual as they measure up just a little smaller than other trainers in the Saucony range.
Saucony Praxis-another lightweight shoe, not quite as responsive as the FT, but great for longer distances. I wore these to do Cardiff as they've got a slightly wider toebox allowing for when the feet get a bit swollen after lots of miles:o)
Asics DS Trainers-I'm getting my last wears out of these, but although lightweight I prefer the FT-they're my favourites at the moment! Although the DS Trainers are a good solid trainer that feel quite firm on the cushioning side.
Nike Skylons-not really for overpronaters, but a lovely shoe that I can wear for short distances.
My other past favourites are Saucony Swerve, which again I've worn for a marathon. The only difference with these to the other Saucony shoes above are they are lower at the back on the heel, but I like the close to ground feel.
Hope this helps!:o)
You should have mail Ceal!
I think this thread has sort have gone to sleep now apart from the odd post as I seem to post on Mike's hard training thread on FLM forum.
It was great while it lasted and I got a great deal out of it!:o)
You have been an inspiration in 2004 - your Cardiff report was one of the most emotional moments of the RW threads all year.
