Hi all. Been away for the w/end. Did an IT job for my Mum's business, so while it wasn't very exciting and I didn't get to do a run, I'm now debt free (or will be once I get the money in the next few days). Happy day :beer:
Back to the running tomorrow morning.

Evening All!
On my rest day today - yippee!
Off out for a morning four tomorrow before another packed day - why do I always book too much stuff in my 'holidays' - I'll look forward to going back to work to get some rest time in
So this week I'm going to start actually noting down my times and use these as a baseline going forward for my target time, although I suspect tomorrow's four will be a lot slower than usual as it involves lots of huge hills, I reckon about 1.05-1.10 will be fine since hill running is not something I'm used to.
Hope everyone's been going well.
Congrats Beertins on being debt free by the way

You seem to have far too much energy for a rest day - we'll have to see if we can slip a 10 miler into your Mondays perhaps?

Hoorah! I'm making progress!

Just been to the track tonight and done my 3 x 1600m interval session. My times were...wait for it...8:18, 8:23, 8:24 on an avg HR of 161. So, the HR is consistent with last time's effort levels, but an increased pace.
Last week I was doing a similar pace but only for 800m intervals, and I didn't feel like I could sustain it for a full 1600m, but this week I can!
I'm dead chuffed! :jSealed Pot Challenge #8 £341.90
