Alias. i work in eng co-ord for scampton. As for the fitness progression iv been put on the 12 week program and am 6 weeks into it, so ill be due a retest around valentines day, so this is my main aim at the moment, but i wouldnt mind doing the lincoln 10km. Do you know how much it is this year? I cant find it online yet.
I was ment to be going out this morning for a 5km but i felt so tight and stiff this morning after doing a 5km then circuit training in the same day, i think i over did it a little bit yesterday.
Rich good time on the 10km today, iv had a look at the link you put up and iv decided that would have been last but at least i would have got a finishing number LOL

You've got to have a dream...If you don't have a dream...how do you expect to have a dream come truu-uuu-uuuee!

Just a rough idea, really, as a "target for this year" - training PB is under 50 mins now, so you'd like to think (once I get back into shape following xmas) a 45min race time isn't too unrealistic. So, by the end of the year, I'd have thought 40 mins was doable - otherwise I won't have made a whole lot of progress...

40 minutes is very doable for you - you're looking at a 50sec/mile improvement from 45 mins. With the right speedwork over a few weeks you'll manage that!:D

Fab running there Sallyx!!!

I'm so so so tired - think my 8 miles on Wednesday evening has caught up with me - I need to do a long run tomorrow though so am inclined to rest tonight.......or is that me being lazy

Rest is good.

Whenever i've had a injury layoff i nearly allways come back faster than before hand. Its the body having a longer time to recover and build itself up better basically.

Will be having a go at working out what i spent running last year this weekend, its gonna be a bloody huge figure and is the main reason why i'm here in the first place.

jjwhittle1981

Ill second that, rest is good.
Im going to have today and tommorrow off any sort of exercise and go out again on sunday morning, going to do 5km but if i feel good at the end my continue on to 10km but that all depends on how i feel.
