Training

London calling

Finished a solid week of runs with a punishing fell race and I’m about as ready for London as I’m ever going to be.

1st place parkrun

Went away camping this week so while I had grand plans of getting out most days and exploring a little of the local trails in Northumberland it just didn’t happen.

Hill work is paying off

This was supposed to a nice easy week in a 4 week cycle so fairly low mileage but a race on Monday and full effort parkrun gave a good feel for where I’m at with London only 3 weeks away.

Punishing – w.e 29/03/15

After a solid week last week I was able to build on it this week with the main aim of getting in a long run at marathon pace.

Solid week – w.e 22/3/15

Knee is still a little delicate when warming up but it’s definitely improving and a decent and varied week under the belt for the first time in a while.

Back to it a bit – w.e 15/3/15

Finally the knee pain seems to be easing a little and for the first time in a while I actually met my modest 50mpw target without the aid of big long run.

Injured w.e 22/2/15

I had grand plans of a big 70+ week here but the calf and knee niggles that have been troubling me put an end to that.
