Decided to add a little bit of science to my cross training last night, so put on the HRM and did 15 minutes on the rower (pushing HR up to mid-140's) then 25 minutes on stationary bike alternating 2 minutes slow (c.130 HR) with 2 minutes fast (c.163-5 HR). In addition, had a go on the gym ball and found it surprisingly hard (using the exercises from RW).
Today: Steady bike (45 minutes or so)
Why: Building endurance base.
Also intend to investigate gym tonight with the intention of doing weights and or elliptical.
Why: on the agenda
Last hard: Saturday
Last rest: Sunday
Morning all
Last Hard - Sunday 6milehappy run
Last rest - Monday and today
What: 5 miles hardish
Why: Scheduled hard run, but legs still tired from Sunday's long 'un.
Last Rest: Saturday
Last (proper) hard: Sunday
What: 6 miles easy
Why: recovery from yesterday's intervals
Last hard: Monday
Last rest: Friday
Very pleased also, as I learned that angiogram is now scheduled for the 13th. Not a trace of perceptible trouble with this morning's outing. If I can do what I did this morning, heart trouble, if any, is hardly likely to be serious, is it?
On the down side, I learned that we were too late to get into the River Cam run. Bother. Should have liked to race this Sunday, particularly with the outside possibility that I will be condemned next Thursday.
What: 10 x 400m fast, total 10km. Felt good.
Last hard: Sunday
Last rest: yesterday
Planned: 10km tomorrow, 17km pace run Thursday, 5km jog Friday, easy 10km Saturday, half-marathon race Sunday.
What: 7 Miles Steady
Why: Schedule Says so!
Pleased with my recovery from the Thanet 20 Miler, I feel absolutely fine today, so it has only taken 1 day to recover!!! Best so far after a race.
Last rest: Yesterday
Last Hard: Thanet 20 Miler on Sunday
Last long: Thanet 20 Miler on Sunday
Good luck with your training one and all.!!
Feeling good.
LL
decided this week is going to be an easy week before gearing up for the last push towards the marathon, so yesterday did alot less than I said I was going to do. I'm going to take a couple of days of rest, and I'm going away at the weekend so that'll be relaxing.
What : Speed work
Why : its a Tuesday
Last Hard : Last Tuesday
Last Rest : Sunday
Have a good one folks!
Why: Need it
Last hard: Sunday race
Last rest: Last Thursday
what:3x3M steady
why: my schedule
last hard day: not having hard days at the moment due to injury
last rest: Saturday
have a good day!
what-45min recovery (6.5mile,135 bpm ish)
why-easy/hard/easyhard......
last hard-yesterdays long brisk one
last rest-week last sunday
No club training for me -have to work!!
Enjoy!!
Well its time to put my knee to the test time.
What: tready Interval session - 10*400m with 90sec slow recoveries - speed? will try 14.6kph (ie 5% above 10k race)
Why: First hard running intervals since mid november
last hard : Forgotten
last rest : Monday
I'm fast reaching a decision point re my training. My longest run for 4 months has been about 7.5 miles, I had entered a 1/2M on 16/3 but other than than 1 10miler league run in May its 10k or less until August. Should I run the 1/2m as a trainer, come in 10mins down on PB and be knackered or skip it and focus on shorter runs rebuilding distance at no more than 10%/week over the next 3 months? I know the answer but..........
Didn't have time to post yesterday - but it was an active rest day, so I just went for an easy swim
Today, rushed off my feet, only got time for 5mi easy
Why: bit of juggling of schedule
Last hard: Sun
Last rest: Mon
What: am 40 minutes turbo, pm either speed session at track or 7 miles steady, depending on how my legs feel after Sunday's long run
Why: Should be hard day today but may be better taking it a bit easier and having hard sessions on Wednesdy am and Thursday PM
Last rest day: Friday
Last hard day: Sunday
What 2.5 mile xc, followed by 20*100m fast, 50m jogs (10 laps of a football field) , 2.5 mile xc jog home.
Why : Tuesdays reps, wanted to get off road
Last Rest : yesterday , passed up the 30min recovey run and had a bag of Haribo mix watching 'Frost' instead.
Last Hard : Today
Well done everyone else, I do read all these but by the time I come to write I forget whose done what.....
Well done the lunatic who did 15 hill reps yesterday ..........
What : about 5 steady with paced efforts
Why : Club nite
Last hard : Yesterdays hill session and MHR test
Last Rest : Sunday
Will
What: Club night.
Why: It's Tuesday.
Hard: Sunday race.
Rest: Yesterday.
Bye!
What: Rest day (scheduled).
Why: Always rest Tuesdays and have our property management company AGM tonight.
Last hard: Yesterday - 5 miles steady as I didn't manage Sunday's long run. Felt good though as I worked out afterwards that about 80% of the route is uphill (although slight in places) and I managed all the steep uphill sections without a problem. Whole run took just under 40 minutes.
Last rest: Sunday (forced by over-indulgence on Saturday night and social arrangements on Sunday).
Have a good day everyone. Hope it all goes OK, Stickless - you're looking good. Keep up with the cross-training, Martin: am sure it will pay off.
What: Rest.
Why: No time to do anything else, unless tossing pancakes counts as training (which it does for one Brummie nutter, who is going to run the FLM while tossing a pancake).
Last hard day: Yesterday was a long time on my feet.
Last rest day: Friday.
nice one! Great to see you're getting out.
What: 10M fartlek with club.
Why: Weekly exercise-induced vomiting session.
Last hard run: Tonight for sure.
Last rest day: Monday.
Why: Buggered everything up today....got stuck in traffic going to work so couldn't use the lunch time as normal and I'm flying out to Kenya tonight..luckily there's a gym at the hotel so it's the treadmill for me for the rest of the week.
Last hard: I suppose yesterday
Last rest: Friday
Won't be posting for the rest of the week. Plan 2 20 miler on Sunday.
Good luck all,
RB
P.S. More power to you Marj!!!
Forgot we had afternoon off (Faschings Dienstag here in Germany - no I don't know either), so managed to get out for an hour on bike in lovely spring sunshine over really hilly route (average speed 24 kmh, max 65kmh!) interestingly HR at top of uphill sections hitting 177 which is about my half-marathon race pace. Who said cross training was easy.
See what I wrote above? Well, I was telling fibs. I managed a 4-mile recovery run at lunchtime, and it was very nice. I've done so many long ones recently that it was quite fun to sneak in a little 40-minute excursion when I should have been at my desk.
Not that I know whether it really was a recovery run or not, since I don't use a HRM. But "recovery run" sounds like what dinosaurs who want to run good marathons ought to do as an alternative to sitting around picking their noses on rest days.
what : nowt
why : rest
last hard : yesterday's 6.5 miles steady pace
last rest : saturday
it's good to be back.
Paul.
Have a good trip to Kenya Ratbag, are you really doing 20 miles on the treadmill??
What: 6 miles recovery. (surely GP's never pick their noses Vrap? Another illusion shattered.)
Why: Oh, I don't know.
Last hard: hill reps too many to think about last night.
Last rest: Sunday.
Happy Pancake Day by the way.
what: 10 k with the Rowing club,
Why : Planned and i get to try out my new trainers which arrived today.
Last Hard Weekend
Last rest : Friday
Not doing any hard sessions this week as the training at the weekend felt harder than it should have. Trying to let the legs recover so I don't burn out before the big races coming up. Race this Saturday as well but not an important one? (if there is such a thing)
Laura - glad to see you using the "recovery" word once in a while. 15 hills repeats!!!!????? ouch.
what: 2M warm-up; 6 x 1K @ 5K pace; 1M warm-down
why: easier speed session with Reading looming this w/e - and I twisted my bl@@dy ankle at work yesterday so I'm a bit crocked. how stupid is that?! running injuries you expect, coming-down-the-stairs-in-too-much-of-a-hurry-to-get-home injuries you don't.
last rest: yesterday
last hard day: Sunday
Phew!!!!!!!!!!
Im not going to plymouth tomorrow, so can do speedwork then
And thank god, it was hard walking round the wards today and my shins hurt
