The bizare thing is we've had early morning temperature of about 6-8 down here recently so I think it's the return to exercising which has upset the balance as I've hardly done anything recently. However the weather is a fair bit colder today. Hope your knee settles down soon.
AGF,
Should do. They've worked before.

Well done on everyone's training. This weekend's weather looks pants & I'm working on Saturday and have things to do on Sunday so may not get out for a run.
Never done 400s before, so I think I ran them too fast. That was one of the reasons I only ran 6, instead of my original plan of 8-10. The 2 unleashed dogs and 8000 strong jog scotland group that desended on the path I was running was the other reason.
Back to the doubles jason just done my second run, 6.25 miles in total with 4 miles at 15k/hr off 200m (very slow) recoveries. Legs were feeling tired, I think the miles are catching up on me!
Fiona another great days training in the bank, funny my legs where heavy yesterday and this morning but felt ok after a couple of miles tonight, on course for 80+ miles this week
Think the low 90' are my limit plus I need to get off road at the weekend for my long run it would kill me if I suffered another stress fracture. I change my shoe after every run and have four pairs going in the rotation OCD setting in this time round.
NP- on the shoe front, I have 2 pairs of cushioned shoes which I rotate between recovery runs, but everything else- 10m + I've started running in flats, purely because it's easier to run at the right pace without the weight.....
Good running guys, JS tonight, 2.5 run to the sports centre, took the one mile group for a little jog round the block. I only had thirty minutes to get home, so I ran a 5k route I've previously done, 29 minutes, nice to run at a quicker pace, not as speedy as some. Back to the 75% runs tomorrow
Some terrific mileage going on, congrats on getting to number 1 Jason.
Great doubles Fiona Jason and NP, I am looking forward to giving the a go when schedule calls, have been tempted to try them but wary as I really dont want to veer of the plan, I would be devastated if I picked up a niggle, I am lucky and stay free of injury.
Thanks NP.... Hope the wrist was better in this swim?
Hi NN. A 17 month old black lab. Currently in season so cannot let of lead. Normally let her off as I run around the racecourse or similar. Cannot do that at the moment for obvious reasons. She's working pedigree which means = energy and short walks leave her frustrated, which means a few more runs on the lead at quiet times in quiet areas. Not ideal but in a week or too she can go back to longer walks off lead etc (and bird chasing)
NP nice double again y'day, and well done on the lengths in the pool
Fiona wow speedy mile intervals
OH ...nice 10.6m
MG well done on the hill reps
Stewart nice running - it's good to have the odd blast
NN well done on the easy run and hope the 11 miler goes/went ok today
---
Sports massage first thing, then 90 mins hot yoga. Lots of one-legged dips and stretches. Managed to haul my heavy limbs out for a 4m recovery this p.m.
NP, I'm still unsure of the benifits of doubles, are they used only to get your mileage above a certain threshold enjoy the 6 easy
AGF, good running today you've earns that meal
Teknik, i see you have had a massage, and have done some miles, I had a sports massage today, should I have a rest from running this evening or go out for a easy run, to be fair most of my running is easy
Hi everyone. First run for me tonight since my LSR on Sunday,
Forgot to pack my shoes for working away, d'oh! Packed everything else Barr the shoes. Ill do 10 miles tomorrow and 15 on Sunday to make up for it lol.
Watch ran out of battery after 2 miles so don't know splits but felt consistent after first two miles at 7:10 min/mile.
4 miles at roughly 7:10min/mile with the mutt, she was knackered lol.

It's not fresh physio only re-doing exercises from when I broke my shoulder a couple of winters ago.
6.5 miles w/6x450ish (@~6.10m/m pace) tonight.

Stewart - I run every day during marathon build-up, as I find it keeps me from stiffening up - so get out there for an easy 3 or 4 (sub70%)...
Tek,
They are thanks.
