Struggling to stay on target for the stretch target of 2500 but 125 miles a month will get me to 2000. At the weekend I returned to proper running after 6 weeks off through injury & burn out.

Foxy Davy Jul 2010 7:42am, 14 Jul 2010 14,294 posts	Quote Pin Foxy Davy just looking to get back to the 200 mile a month minimum base I was at last year but that will have to wait until next month, 150 would be pleasing for July.

If I can pace it ok and keep my legs moving I am mentally ok - just if my body does not break down. Foxy as Gobi says - give it time and don't try to get back to the same level straight away - maybe some X training?

Didn't specifically train for Comrades,didnt do anything longer than 30 miles due to lack of time.
