Week 23rd - 29th January

Monday was set down as an 'easy' 6km which I cancelled without permission because of the heat! Instead I did 60 minutes on the stationary bike while watching tennis & then some core strengthening on the floor - still watching tennis!

Today, Tuesday : woke to find the Highlands covered in mist & wonderfully cool...crazy weather. Again without permission I made up a new session; I decided to do the 6km on the track at Chev. instead of on the road! 15 x 400m - & in the middle somewhere I did 4 laps faster than the others. I enjoyed this & will do, with permission already granted(!), Friday's medium long run on the track also. As Ewen has said about this: Positives - soft grass & water every 400m; Negatives - boring! He also warned about falling asleep on the track & crashing into the picket fence!!! I side-stepped this issue by telling him I would be wearing a crash helmet!

Wednesday : Track - the usual warm-up, strides, stretch.
3 x 400m Fast
Warm-down - as usual

Thursday : Fun Run....could be a question mark about this.
Friday : Medium Long Run - 15km
Saturday : Rest.
Sunday : Long Run ..... 28 - 30 km

  2. I reckon do what ever keeps you going. If the cap fits, wear it.

    Thanks for the kind words. It hasn't been so rough, more frustrating not being able to run. So a week off makes the legs fresh and they seem to be raring to go yesterday.

    Can't wait for Canberra race and to meet you and all the other CRs.

  3. superflake, the star pupil already has permission to be at Moore Park. It's her choice. After all, she only ran three 400s today so she should be fresh!
