2012 Marathon thread

Well done for getting out Jason hope you enjoyed the massage.

Looks like you also had a nice double and weights session Fiona, with regards to doubling up the tempo runs thats the aim at the moment the first one on the Tuesday is the main one the others I'm off pace and unable to maintain it for the full length however this will come so that I can maintain it over all four sessions but it's bloody hard work at the moment.

First of two sessions done this morning just over 6 miles

Fiona- you had better sort out that 7.26 pace too- either to 7.30 or 7.15 I thought it was cold here, but the temperature has rocketted to zero this evening Off for a plod in a bit

NP- Mainly base miles here with a bit of tempo running now and again. Speed will come later  

Hello peeps

The end is in sight. Fizz says I can go back to running "once I feel no pain doing one-legged squats". So what's your address NP?

NP,

I'm just sticking to the weekends at the mo.

Tek,

That's great news.

-----------

Well done on everyone's training.

LOL Tek

5+ miles pre meal out this evening

NP - some steady miles going in

Teknik lol best offer i have had all day....

HM4 you should still try one day during the week.

Jason you a softy southerner lol

OH enjoy your night out well done on the run

Plaster off weight down by 2lbs wrist extremley sore second 6 mile run of the day done getting into the Christmas spirit and someone looking at the house tomorrow

NP,

You know what my motivation is like during the winter !

Well I just love this time of year pre base building plan in place and starting to feel like 2:5x:xx is possible if I stick to my plan i even like running in the dark and cold...

NP,

It takes all sorts.  Give me a hot sticky summer evening with a tempo run any day.

NP hope the arm eases off, you might have to stay off the rough ground for a bit, don't want to fall!!

No run for me yesterday as home from work too late - 10:45pm  I'll try to get a short run in tonight before the Xmas party. I hope the snow shifts before tomorrow's run for the car!

I don't mind cold weather training once I'm out and warmed up (dark and mist is best!)

F

thanks HM

NP glad the plaster's off and well done on the double...building well

OH nice 5 miler

Fiona hope the run goes ok tonight and enjoy the party

Wet roads= no slipping, no rain either= perfect 8m easy done and dusted. 100m round trip planned for tomorrow for my first Parkrun! Not expecting too much- been a long time since I ran anything faster than 6 min miling...

Hot yoga sounds fun!  Having done yoga before I know it can be really tough.
