Brilliant! Oh, to be able to do 10k in under an hour - working on it, working on it! Hopefully by the end of the summer.

Rich, thanks for the summary about intervals, explained loads! Bit too advanced for me yet I think - but definitely a goal!

Evening All!

Despite all signs pointing to me usually being sensible - had a bit of a silly day today - knew I was tired and still dragged my hulking carcass around 11 miles of evil evilness in 1:57 - really should have just called it a day after a couple of miles and had another crack tomorrow...

Anyway am going to rest tomorrow now and run again on Friday - but I am lucky I dont seem to have injured anything am just exhausted - nearly collapsed on my step

Remember this is why we tell you to listen to your body *Becky goes off muttering to herself about the telling off shes going to get from Rich later*

You've still done 11 miles at around 10:30 pace which is a good block of miles and, in itself, doesnt suggest you were too tired.

However, only you know how hard it felt and if it was a major struggle from early on it may have been better to take the hint and delay by 24 hours.

But no harm done and you will get the training benefit from doing it. Nothing but very easy running now before the 5K on Saturday though.;)

Yes boss - it was very hard work on the thigh muscles which is how I know I am tired - poor legs were unhappy from the start - couldnt even eek out the other 2 miles I wanted

How did your run go?

OMG have you seen that annoying banner ad for the lunar glide + rarrrrrrrrrr

Why would anyone who runs not even a mile need an overpriced technical shoe like that *rolls eyes*

And I went to check it out on their website and it doesnt even say whats so good about it anyway apart from a load of marketing rubbish - come on concept shoe so explain the ffing concept please... grrrrr
