Swimming is for fish. I hate it too!
MLR was 7.1 miles @8:35 m/m and 66% wHR. Felt well recovered from Saturday's race ... down to only doing 30 miles last week. Tapering is nice.
13ish miles tonight, mostly in Sutton Park, absolutely beautiful, longest run since Stratford marathon.
Averaged 9.17m/m @ 75% MHR
At lunch time I ran 3.32 at 9 48s but took a little time out earlier in the morning for a fitness test (Bleep test) at 10 45 and was pleased that I was ahead of what I achieved in 2002, especially after 15.5 miles on Sunday.
Bleep test result 13.6
5m Fartlek Session for me this morning.
Tough session and my legs and lungs know it.
Stomach feeling much better though, thankfully.
Hi all
My running is sporadic to say the least. After gaining entry into the VLM this year in December I have hardily run (including missing the VLM). Starting from scratch in April I am up to 3 miles at a time every couple of days.
I have plantar faciitis and it was driving me mad but I am resigned to my fate now.
I will get back in time but i've not posted any runs on here as i do not consider them worthy enough yet. Maybe thats a selfish attitude?
Good to see the regulars still plodding, keep it up.
I will post soon!
Welcome Madlot.
iRun - hope the comeback goes well. Run slow and land gentle. The book "Born to Run" starts with the author's frustration with continual plantar faciitis ... he ends up being an ultra runner and now uses VFFs. best of luck.
That was a very early run, Birkmyre!
and I thought I was early getting out just before 7!
3.54miles/30mins on the trails in nice sunshine - almost hot!
Runnaholic: I used to start work at 7am, now it's 8am. However I still get up and run at my 'old 'time before I go to work. It helps that I'm a morning person though !
slightly warmer this morning than my last few early runs (read : above freezing!) tho a mist was hanging about, which burnt off as I ran. Have settled into my double loop of the village now for the mornings as it avoids almost all the traffic, and given we are on a commuter run there is plenty of traffic early doors, most of which is not inclined to pull over for a runner, but rather blow past close enough to touch. Went out nice and quick, and finished on my quickest mile this year. First training run under 9mm so happy bunny today.
4m in 35.30
Hi folks!
Hill Reps! 10x about 320 meters with about 6.5% incline, all between 1min 34 and 1min37.
Pleased with the thigh busting work out.
And a couple miles gentle jog afterwards, to enjoy the weather.
Nice going Dr. Dan, Hanna and others!
1hr11. 13.9mls. 130AvHR.
Lovely sunny evening.
A 6 mile trot out in the Hampshire countryside at 5am. BEAUTIFUL!!! Wild garlic in flower, 3 rabbits, 2 pheasants and a hare
After dinner my son asked if we could go running. We ran when he was a lot younger (about 11 years old but then he lost interest) and I've been trying to get him back on the road for a long while now. He is 14 and an awesome runner easily putting me to shame. I can see big things in him
7 miles at 8 minute mile pace and a fantastic run and chat with my eldest son. Some days just don't get any better than this
5.27mls. 44mins. 162avHR
A couple of laps round the blocks in VFFs after work - nice & warm, several joggers about so enjoyed a bit of social chats along the way.
45mins / 5.68miles
easy run today after belting it round yesterday, though the weather had other ideas. Had the morning off as I'm on call tonight, so needed a lie in. Got up at 8, realised it was going to be a warm one, so gulped down a yoghurt, took the dogs out for a walk and then went out for a run sharpish, but it was still roasting by 9am. Think the legs were also a bit tired after yesterday, as it felt far harder than it should have done. Still, it's another run in the bag, rest day tomorrow, but will need to get my long run in Friday as I'm on call again over the weekend.
4.25m in 39.45
4.5M Steady . Enjoyed it Warm, but drizzly up here.
Saw a young deer when I was out, I do seem them occasionally. What a sprint it had !!
