What: Rest.
Why: Recovering from injury and ran today.
Last hard: Yesterday, as I didn't know where anything was!

I can't believe I used the phrase "looking forward" in connection with a seventeen mile run, but as a runner there's a great satisfaction to getting the miles up.
WIll have to wait until next weekend probably - will do some 6's and 8's in the week as soon as I can get the gunk out of my respiratory system.

Race Report:
24th/over 300, didnt score for the team today as we put out a really strong team and trounced the rest of the field, to 7 runners in by 15, so it was avery good team performance. This was also compounded by a hard training week and my left shin muscle, whatever it is, packing up @ the start of the 2nd lap. Such a shame, as Ia had a storming start and was out with the lead boys, where I should be on good day. I'm just hoping that its OK really. Do a bit of injury research tonite I spose. Still, I still managed to acquire a scalp I've been hunting for quite a while and none of the runners who are targetting me managed to take advantage, so It cant all be bad.
Why: I like my long run's [usually]
Last hard: Sat
Last rest: Fri
Why: Something nice and challenging to do.
Last hard: Today.
Last rest: Friday.
Next rest: Definately tommorow.
I finished somewhere towards the back of the field, but I did win a calendar in the raffle.
Why: Wanted to run away from usual roads for some fresh air.
Last rest: Friday.
Next rest: Tuesday.
I ran down a Splash Lane at one point - never has a lane been so well named.
What a quiet day today!
What: supposed to be long run but
did 19 minutes & had stitch & calf was hurting.
Last rest: yesterday
Last hard: friday
Next week: will have to do longer run!
Have a nice Sunday evening!
Well done those who did race anyway - esp those who pb'ed - hardly the best day for it was it?
What: 12.9 miles - home to Caldy CC; 5 laps of grounds and return. Time: 92:57
Why: Long run day
last hard day: Tue (yesterday's race was too short to count - despite the average HR of 173!)
last rest day: Fri
last long day: Sun
What a difference getting a decent night's sleep makes. With my 4 year-old son performing in a nativity play (as a shepherd-cum-vivisectionist, if what he did to his toy lamb was anything to go by), the usual early rising for breakfast & 11.00 run plan was jettisoned & I got a nice lie in till 9.30 before going to see him perform at church at 11.00.
Went out at 1.15 instead; found a decent top to wear which at least minimised the effect of the wind & rain. Despite the usual sapping effects of the hill climbs & the undulating grass & bark at Caldy, for the first time I actually had enough left to dig in & work over the last 2 miles. 13:34 for the last 2 doesn't sound exactly brilliant, but given that they were both upwind & it's just about the first time I've managed to break 7 minute mile pace at the end of these long runs, I regard it as a minor breakthrough.
That was the goal for 2003 I forgot to include in that thread on the General forum - "to sleep more".
lain, hope the cold clears soon!
KK, well done on your race.
What: 5 mile recovery run
Why: a very heavy weekend with parties then big family meal today. Hurry up January!

why: URWFRC Christmas Cracker windsor great park - great laugh
last hard (today actually - the distance at that pace i'm not used to) - But feel good for it
