Tuesday did 3 laps fartlek - that hurts!! Need to do more of this - steady pace is so easy!!

Back at work

Back at work this week - first time in about 4 months.

Poor running week subsequently - I think I will have to fit runs in Tuesdays and wednesdays, sat and sundays. Maybe the odd one on a thursday morning...

This week only wednesday, planned for 4 laps, but short on time so went out for a fast 3.
No garmin, but 35:43 = 6:42 miling, so getting slowly faster. Went out too hard though, struggled to keep the pace on the laps (9:30, 9:45 and 9:50 I think)

Natalie on call this weekend so will only get out tomorow (Sat) - better try for a 5 lap run...

Hot Weekend

Saturday - only time for 1/2 hr so 2 laps in 27 minutes - slow, before breakfast again - not at all my best time of day.

Sunday - 4 laps, cut short by stopping at the park to meet lucy

5.96 miles in 40:46 = 6:51 min miling.

splits : 7:01; 6:43; 6:48; 6:59; 6:43; 6:48

again consistency the name of the game. Will keep at 4 laps for a week or two and then push up another couple of miles.

No House

Not been out for a few days as been trying and failing to buy a house. Beaten by someone in rented accommodation...

Today went out before lunch to coast round 3 laps and ran a pb! exact opposite to last week...

5.33 miles - 36.15 = 6.48 min miles.

Splits: 6:56; 6:46; 6:52; 6:53; 6:32; 6:54 (last 1/3 mile).

So recent pb and consistent which is really pleasing.

Must still concentrate at getting the miles under my belt.

Slow Tuesday

Went out to push along 3 laps and averaged 7:20 miles!!!

How did that happen - went out before breakfast as quite a few runs have been recently - I am sure that is not my best time of day.

Will try and fit in one wednesday and thursday before a weekend off again because of wedding.
