Morning again
Okay session. Cold, dry, no wind
Miss B is just away out doing her morning paper round.
Back later
Morning.
I had a paper round
What: something easy
Why: trying to stay sane in the taper
Last hard: as above
Last rest: 13/4
Lyrics - not today.
What: group run later
why: Thursday
last rest: Tuesday
last hard: Monday
lyrics no
looks like I'll be missising best weekend in Orkney this year weather wise (heading down to Manchester)
Lyrics: yes
What: 5k d&d. Gently out, faster back
Why: habit
How long will you be in HM for, OH?
Old Trafford for CPD Saturday (so will miss PRs) then staying with Dad until plane late Monday afternoon. Will bring running kit down but likely to be unpredictable.
Hi
What - easy running if anything, coaching the little people.
Why - hard double yesterday: 5 tempo at lunchtime in the sunshine, and ventured to the track last night (uber-muggy). 3 mile w/u (first two on grass) then 2x2k @ 4min/k pace with 800 between, mile c/d. Legs had very little in them, but training them to move when knackered.
last rest - Today will be easy
last hard - yesterday
lyric - not sure
Sunshine and warmth? Hope it comes this way soon!
Lovely warm sunshine here too - an absolute pleasure to be out running in it.
Did a session with a difference today - I am really enjoying using Strava and have set up many segments in the local area. I wanted to do reps today but fancied a wee change so had a look through my segments and identified 5 that I wanted to go to the top of the leaderboard on (being quite a quiet area, there are only between 40 and 60 people on each segment). This was kind of like fartlek rather than a rep session. First 3 were half a mile or more and then a nice short 0.21, finishing with a final 0.7 mile. I returned to find I topped the leaderboard on all 5 segments, so job done! I'll do the session again in the future to see how it compares - great fun! About 7.1 miles altogether.
lyrics, nope.
afternoon all
I am in need of coffee!!
Donaldo they have been talking about Strava at work, is it good?
have a nice cultured day alehouse
lmh, chingford has quite an old paper boy,well about 40 not old but for a paper boy it is!
what: think I'll do a pottering jog around to see both granddaughters later
why: its a nice way to get a bit of running in and a massive bonus to boot!
last hard: yesterday morning
last rest tuesday
have a good day all
Wabo, it's really good, yes, if you pay the £40 for premium. I still think Garmin Connect gives you more useful info and it's free but Strava has all those extras to it, like the ability to compare your performance with all of those around you and league tables for every segment you create etc. I'll be paying for premium again in a years time!
Nice to top the leaderboard
I rather keep a low profile though. As a girl running in the dark most times of be ready to stalk
What: 8.5 miles with 4 x1 mile fast (7:03, 7:01, 7:03, 6:56)
Why: leg speed
Last hard: the final rep
Last rest: 1/4
Lyrics: no
8 miles done but 4 days of little or nothing coming up
What: Track
Why: leg speed
Last hard: the final rep
Last rest: 14/4
Lyrics: no
