TT... Thanks; All good reminders of 'multi-tasking' opportunities! I do a lot of single leg balancing..going into squats, etc...and I used to keep some weights in the bathroom where I would do squats and lunges while waiting for MrsM...until our daughter decided that she could make better use of them... Donnie... Thanks.…
I know it’s not easy and I’m the worst with wanting to come back to early Donny but patience will your friend in the long run. Thats a shame George keep your spirits up you will be back soon. Yay to wearing shorts again MrM2 😁 6 miles this morning with a 4 mile tempo sandwiched in there. YTD 106 miles.
Ugh so not been on here for a bit...I didn't do my Brighton 10K because I woke up with a sore throat on the Saturday and that quickly turned into a head cold. Yay me. I didn't do much at all that week aside from a few goes on the bike at the gym to try and sweat it out, but I managed to trudge (run/walk) around Ashford…
Wow Hobie that’s not for me I’m afraid. TT I only run 4 days a week, weights on Thursday so rest days are the weekend. Cal good idea to use the track, it’s much more forgiving on the joints than pavements. 7 miles this morning with a 5 mile tempo which somehow turned out quicker than half marathon pace, luckily day off…
Some hills for me, did 1.2 warm up before meeting a mate to do the hill at the end of my road, she was late so I set off, really tough after Tuesday's race. Then she came along 5 efforts in! Did another 6 , then cool down to get to 4 miles 33 ytd
Where is that, TT? Well done on the ton-ups, MrM2 and Hobie. Donnie - I had some Nike Epic Reacts with over 1000 miles - they don't make them any more. I only got 500 out of the Invincibles before they began to feel crappy. Well a bit less, really - I stopped enjoying wearing them around 300. Still angry at Nike for…
Sorry you're having a hard go of it, MrM2. Glad you are able to get out, though. I was going to run yesterday but it was raining. The silver lining of not being able to run too often is being able to sack it off when it's less than optimal outdoors with no guilt whatsoever. I went out today instead. It was grey and rather…
Evening Sounds like a nice Parkrun Cal Did the rain come today MrM2? Fairly wet here all day though luckily eased off for my run this evening JackFW - my sister in law lives in Melbourne now and I was hearing about a bit of a heatwave currently. Sounds like fairly difficult running conditions Hope yesterday went ok Hobie…
Yeah I've cancelled Brighton - even if I got miraculously better in a couple of weeks, it wouldn't be in time to train. Since they don't do deferrals or transfers, I asked if I could swap to the 10K and they've allowed that, so I'll still have something. I should hopefully be able to manage that by then. 4 miles run/walk…
Afternoon all. Been a bit distracted the last day or two since the marathon - still in London, flying home this afternoon. I've put a more detailed race report in the training section of the forum under today's post if anyone wants to read it. Sunday had perfect marathon weather. I was the the yellow start which only had 3…
