Medium Long Run - 12 Miles HR150 Max
Well, again this evening my legs are really sore and heavy and this evenings run is indicative of how I'm feeling at the moment. Slow, sluggish and generally uncomfortable. I don't feel like I can sustain any sort of decent pace and evening running t...
Recovery Run - 10 Miles
I was supposed to break todays run into two runs, one of 6 miles and one of 4 miles. I've done this a few times over the last few weeks according to the instructions in the schedule. However I had a meeting in Birmingham this morning which meant I ha...
Recovery Run - 6 Miles
This is my last run in France and my holiday here is coming to an end today. Suffice to say, my legs are feeling beaten up, I'm feeling tired, the hills have been good training but tough and I'm looking forward to getting back to normal scheduling of...
Lactate Threshold - 11 Miles (5 Aerobic, 6 Threshold pace)
Today I am doing my Lactate Threshold workout, this is far from ideal as I did a 20 mile run yesterday which I was less then happy with. In any case I have no real choice as its the only way I can fit this run into my schedule the way things stand so...
Long Run - 20 Miles
Holy cow............That was bloody awful. I'm not happy with this performance at all I'm afraid. I'm in danger of losing faith in my schedule but in terms of a mental rehearsal for the marathon this run was definitely the one. I just felt pretty awf...
Lactate Threshold - 10 miles (5 Aerobic, 4 Threshold Pace)
I'm still playing a bit of catch up with the blog so bear with me. I'm going away for a few days next week and work needs sorting out before I leave, so that's taking up a lot of time at the moment.I'm feeling a little bit tired of late, nothing too...
20 Mile Long Run
Well there is only one way to describe this run, totally disappointing and not a very happy experience.I was struggling from the first few miles, and continued to suffer until the bitter end with this run. My HR was constantly over the 150bpm limit a...
Medium Long Run - 11 Mile L2 HR150 Max
Its just not going to be my week. Again, this run felt really sluggish and slow. I started out ok, but it didn't take long for me to grind to a halt. I was determined to obey my Heart Rate limit of 150bpm, as I've still got a few more miles to "bank"...
Medium Long Run - 14 Miles HR150 Max
Phew, did I not enjoy that run!!!Following my run last night I really haven't been looking forward to this run at all. And of course, if you are not up for it, its always going to be a chore. And that is the story of tonights run. It was to be "endur...
9 Mile General Aerobic 150bpm + Strides
As I suspected my legs were a bit tired tonight. I guess thats as a result of my bike ride yesterday when perhaps I should have had a total rest day, but I've also stepped it up a notch with my weight training session this morning as well. So I suppo...
Medium Long Run - 13 Miles HR150 Max
My Pfitzinger & Scott schedule called for a Medium Long Run of 13 miles tonight at an aerobic pace. Its been quite warm out today and I left it a little later before leaving home, so that it would cool down a bit. I felt fairly good for the first 4 m...
Recovery Run - 5 Miles
Wow, that was hard, this was supposed to be a recovery run but it felt really bad from the start. My HR was bouncing over my 150bpm limit that I had set on my Garmin Forerunner, although I was trying to keep it in the low 140's. After all this is sup...
Whats going on..........
I'm feeling very tired and lethargic this morning, not sick or anything but definitely off, and not 100% I was planning a 16 mile run later this afternoon, but the way I feel at the moment I'm not sure it'll be a good idea. So I might just take today...
