Bryn, must try and get up to MP on the way home. I can do the straight home route with you then hit Tony's loop to make it up. We can come back the same way as last year?

Just back from watching the Ospreys - great game. Been on the lash since, feel trashed now....hic hic

Bryn - Re. long run, bit of a boring route, but flat , 1st mile was up hill to Sketty and then down passed Singleton Hospital to Oystermouth Road left to the Marina, across bridge turned back, ran along Mumbles Road to Verdis, and then back to the Marina and back again to the University, which is 18 miles.Benny Benassi kept me in the zone.

2:45 - yep, it aint easy.......I think its about 6:12 per mile isn't it?

Is there a race next weekend?

Not sure if I'll be up for it tomorrow.....may, have a lie in, read the paper and then wash the car.

Afternoon lads. Good fun today, it dawned on me afterward though that the pace was not that much off my half paCe... the answer!!!?? You tell me? Run home was ok 6.50 pace. Fl-did you manage your pace

Ff- can we meet up this week, I reef to get in some miles your way

Fast Legs

23/01/2011 at 18:05

Great running today lads well done.

FF, sorry mate couldn't get to your pace but did manage just under 21 mile for the day at 6:38 avg pace.

Fast Forward

23/01/2011 at 18:37

Bryn - aye, it'd be good to get some miles in. Tuesday's I do speedwork, or Thursday a quickish tempo run. I couldn't quite stay with you on that home straight, but I'm working on it. That last sprint you did was impressive, your legs were going like crazy! I wanted to beat Paul Talbot but just couldn't get there - close though!

FL - 21 miles at average 6:38 is good running. Don't worry payback's coming I'll get your speed well under 6:30 / mile.

Is there a race next weekend?

Fast Forward

23/01/2011 at 18:49

Today's splits :- Mile 1 - 5:18 Mile 2 - 5:25 Mile 3 - 5:43 Mile 4 - 5:44 Mile 5 - 5:42.

Average 5:35 / mile.

Must try harder!

FF, banking on you getting me faster mate. Although I will hate you at the time of doing it.

Your last mile was the same as mine

1) - 1m - 5:41(5:41/m)
2) - 1m - 5:48(5:48/m)
3) - 1m - 5:48(5:48/m)
4) - 1m - 5:54(5:54/m)
5) - 0.99m - 5:42(5:44/m)

Really must try harder!!!!

5.29
5.32
5.39
5.36
5.20

Avg 5.31, but i should have stayed with you mr p in the beginning, it was hell trying to make the ground up. I have done four weeks of solid mileage, now is the time so start putting some speed in there!!! wooohoo

Still debating about what to do about FOD/RB10k. I think i am going to hold out until the baby is born and see if its a cryer or a sleeper, the latter could really make the difference!!

I was planning on doing a 5k this weekend coming, after todays performance it says that i come out with a 16.42 5k (5.23 pace). i dont know if your up for that?
