    Week2 (Abingdon)
    Mon27/4 Rest Day
    Tues28/4 Rest Day
    Weds29/4 14.0 Miles 1:49:14 (7:48/mile) (Pulse108)
    Thurs30/4 10.0 Miles Fartlek 1:15:39 (7:34/mile) (Pulse 100)

    The plan today was to do a 40x200 interval session but it became impractical to do it as planned. So the next best option was employed....a 10 mile fartlek with the middle 6 miles used for a series of hard 45 second efforts.

    It felt good especially considering last night's run so I can safely say that the marathon is now out of the legs.:D:D:D

    Hello. Haven't been well for the last few days but went out for a 1.5 mile walk followed by a half mile run. It felt good. A little niggle in the shin but not as bad as other days. The 1.5 mile walk must of warmed up the legs.
    I believe that the London Marathon places should be best for age. However, some of the charity runners were quite fit despite the time taken especially those in elaborate costumes.
