just as a matter of interest, I came across this fella from some results I was looking at. Wondered if anybody else had come across someone with a 36 min 10k and a 2.36 marathon. I think there's less than 10secs per mile difference in pace between his PB'S.
I have a 12 day old daughter and have still been able to get out and do the parkrun the morning after she was born, I ran at whoolan nook trail race last wed then ran the Calderdale way relay on Sunday. the lack of sleep seems to have helped as I got a 1st and 2 second places in therm. Haha.
Fortunately I've a dog that needs walking so it usually ends up running with me.
Sorry that should read 66! Ha. I'm on my new iPhone and I've got sausage fingers.
i would've been happy to do all the session at 2.34s before I started and then when I hit 2.30 on the 3rd I was aiming to keep them at that. the quickest ones are where we was joined with the bloke who ran 15.45 at christeleton. The last rep became a bit of a kick. The next time I'm on there I'll know that I can hit the paces still so would expect them to be a lot more consistent.
Ill take them that erratic with it being my first time on there.
After a near two month absence I ventured onto the track tonight with my second claim club. I was extremely wary of what was going to happen after a lack of it, having heavy quads from Sundays race and wondering if trotting 3 miles out earlier was a mistake.
Session was 6x800 off 2 mins. First one was 2.34 but felt comfortable then the rest came out at 2.32- 2.30- 2.30- 2.28- 2.23. We then had a 400 blast in 56 secs. Really pleased with how it went. Better calibre of runner there which helps but felt really strong which was a surprise.
