Like many others on the forum have been feeling a bit under the weather - but nothing that seems to have come to the surface. Did a very steady 8 last night and felt fine although a little weary afterward. The pressure has been upped at bit at work over the last week so it could be that - isn't it annoying when work gets in the way of running!
Rest day yesterday, although perhaps not quite what you imagine in that. Spent 6 hours on my back during the day, most of it asleep. Guess I needed it, cause I had no trouble sleeping at night, and the world certainly seems a less annoying place for having done so.
Rest day usually shifts to a weekday, out of cricket season. In particular, in the depths of winter, Saturday represents one of the two days I can get out and run in daylight.
With races planned for Sundays 15/9, 22/9, 29/9 and 13/10 however, I've got a few idle/easy Saturdays still to come!
Why: Langdale 1/2 tomorrow, and the autumnal blustery wind and rain has arrived with a vengeance. Should be fun.
Last hard: Tues.
Last rest: Thurs (easy week this week!).
Good to hear you're running Stickless. Cricket - don't understand it, but good luck anyway Mike.
Yes, why is Sept such a packed month for good races? Tempted to do Cumbrian 1/2 next weekend if I'm recovered from tomorrow, after that there are 2 10 milers followed by the GNR. Well, can't do all of them or I'll get too behind in the domestic brownie point system.
Have a good weekend all.
Why: Endurance conditioning for 10km attempt
Last Hard day: Today (technically)
Last Rest day: Monday
Next rest day: tommorow (yay!)
Good luck to all you racers!..
Why : Loosening up before GSR tomorrow
Last Rest : Yesterday
Last Hard : Thursday
Good luck everyone racing this w/e
Why: trying to be sensible this week and cut back a bit
Last Hard Day: Thursday
Last Rest Day: Monday
Good luck with the 1/2M, Laura - hope the meteorological conditions don't get you down.
What: rest day
Why: GSR tomorrow. Originally was going for a sub 70 but know I'm not in that kind of form, so will TRY to be pleased with whatever I do.
Last hard day: Mon
last rest day: yesterday
I have a very busy running/racing period now up until Christmas and will be racing something like 2 out of every 4 weeks. Unless of course injury or illness raises its ugly head! You never can tell.
Martin I agree it's annoying when work gets in the way of training. If only I was rich enougth to choose not to work or only when I want!
Good luck everyone racing this weekend. Hopefully the weather will stay kind!
What: Gym. Walked there short way, 1hr Bodypump, 10 mins stationary cycling to see whether I still hate it as much as I used to (I do), 20 mins on the steppy and swam 1km gently. Ditched the treadmill intervals in deference to race tomorrow. Walked home along canal path.
Why: It's pretty much what I normally do on a Saturday.
Last rest day: Yesterday.
Last hard day: Thursday.
Nice afternoon, so I'm spending some of it in the garden pruning the spiky things and pulling up weeds. Since I started to run regularly, the garden has gone seriously to seed and weed - and I used to be very garden-proud!
Why : first chance to try out new wetsuit
Last Rest day: Yesterday – have had quite a lazy week this week

Now feel like I'm falling apart. Spine no longer responds. Larger fest coming on.
Great. After months of arsing about I feel like I am back.
