Those race calculators things are mental, told me I could do something like a 4;30 mara based on a 2:12 half PB

Perhaps I could if I put the work in !?

But life gets in the way !!

I don't take much notice of the race calculator thingie Spence, I just look at the training zones for long runs/intervals and such.  As you say, life gets in the way.

Spence

Following the formula I gave predicts you a 4 hours 44 mara........and you say you are going to train for a sub-5 so it's not so far out...................

May?? What is this word "may"?
28/10/2011 at 10:33

Tis the word which indicates when I will have a humungous panic attack

And I did cycle in today even though it's a little damp but haven't got time to extend the ride at all so it will have to be a basic commute of 2 x 5 miles...............

Eeek!

Any other year I'd probably do it as Mr P comes from that neck of the woods and I'm sure would love to do it but 2012 won't work for me unfortunately date wise.................

If you put half as much energy into training as you do planning and talking about what you may do  ...........

fraid I've been training a la Podds and done nul training today.  Even went to work in the car. I like it.  

 But I've got a "dustboy special" bike ride tomorrow and he always finds a hill or two to get me working hard.

I haven't done anything for almost a week

DD is laying in front of the wood burner dreaming!  She's making funny little noises and her legs are twitching!!

Aw Spence.  I love it when dogs do that.  I wonder what they dream about?  And do they know it was a dream when they wake up?

Twas my last day in my job today and I had to bring flowers home and I felt quite sad really.  But looking forward to a new challenge on Monday. But scared.
