I'm with the listers.... anything to put me further up the table. Can we have a 10k one too? And then a 200m one? Things could get better and better for me....

Here's an idea.... to make this HM table a bit more relevant to the sub-3 thread perhaps we should split it into 2 divisions for sub-3ers and non-sub3ers? Or am i just asking for trouble?
It could be the only opportunity I get to top a league - as fastest HM by a non-sub3er!
fck me I'm not at the bottom...

Surely there would also have to be a seperate league for the Sub 75s??
:¬) loadsa loadsa trouble
Gobby - i don't feel that would add any benefit to the tables... but i could be wrong
I'm just an ideas man... others can do the leg work should they feel like it
Lists, GPS for XC, spreadsheets for bpm rise, Arrgh !
What happened to abusing Pug and knob gags ? Plus a bit of marafun training advice.
It's just base training madness TR. Once January comes we'll all be in a proper training plan and building up to FLM again.
Plus we can't be rude to Pug if he's not here and presumably not yet running or even talking about how fast he will be running.
Just off to do another spreadsheet (and possibly not even running-related)!
Is anyone else actually marathon training at the moment? I've already started (actually started two days after Amsterdam), and yesterday did almost 14 hard miles in 90 mins (*distance being approx, not being a garmin sort of bloke).

Have added myself to list, but 3 factors to input into the Pugometer
- wasn't a PB
- ran through 13.1 miles at Kingston 16 in March in 1:19:30
- was hammered in a Puerto Banus nightclub at 6am, only 27 hours before the gun went
Might do Stebbing 10 on Sunday. Have done it a couple of times before as a NY warm down. Could have a stab at knocking 1 second off my PB and going sub 1hr.
Just for TR "Mr ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH"
Do we have a list of marathons people are doing next year ?
If not here it is :¬)

My NF prize arrived yesterday, quite a smart pottery mug. TT jr was quite taken with it, kept pointing at it and saying 'Nice'

Also starting marathon training from 19/11. If only to get back on a certain list. This is the kind of schedule I have in mind - hopefully with a 3 weeks hard, one easy pattern:
M: 40, 60
T: 40, 5 x mile in 5:00ish
W: 40, 90
T: 40, 12-16 x 400 (100) in working down from 67 - 68s (current) to 65 - 66s (spring)
F: 40, rest or 40
S: 60, 40 with a couple of strides
S: alternate 2hr with 60min tempo, 2.5hr slow, 2hr with 80min tempo and 2hr slow over 4 week pattern.
Well played JEJ - I like that post - especially the Sundays !

I've had half an eye on 'pre-schedule' training for a while now, logging a few 16 milers of a weekend, but when I get back from New York next week I'll have (a) no more weekend interruptions to training for the foreseeable future and (b) a nice new pair of lightweight shoes to break in with the first of my MP runs.

May double up some days with an extra 5 miler to bring mileage closer to 80mpw, but very conscious of not doing my usual thing of pushing myself too hard and getting injured this time. Will also try to work in occasional hill sessions and 5k pace intervals (12x400?) when I feel like it.
Sunday A long run 3+hrs or A race AM run and gym PM
Monday 5-10miles AM 2 miles + gym Lunchtime 2-4 + circuits PM

Will start training proper in Feb, weekly schedule for the following 6-7 months will be something like
Mon: 60-90 mins steady
Tue: ~13 miles (10 @ tempo/marathon pace)
Wed : 60 mins easy
Thr: ~13 miles (10 @ tempo/marathon pace)
Fr: 60-90 mins with hill reps/strides
Sat: 60-90 mins steady
Sun: 150mins steady
Might throw in doubles once I get some consistency..
Mon: AM: 15 @ < 160HR / PM: 8 @ < 145HR
Tues: AM: 12 @ < 145HR / PM: Yoga
Wed: PM: Club night (though currently not joining in ‘standard’ speedwork), plus 2.5m jog there and the same back @ < 150HR
Thurs: AM: 17-23 @ < 145HR / PM: Weights
Fri: PM: Yoga
Sat: AM: 12 @ < 160HR
Sun: PM: Weights.
Total weekly mileage is ~ 72-80.
The HRs at the quicker stuff will increase shortly and the HRs at the lower ones will also decrease shortly.
I have been battling with my HM monitor recently. Seems to start high (145 BPM) for first couple of miles and then drift down to about 130 BPM, and when I increase the pace it struggles to get back to 145 BPM. So having bought a new strap, I am starting to think the Garmin software is not working.
Also found out that my Amsterdam time has got me onto Athletics data (albeit at 407)…which is nice touch.
