Thanks everyone, a big jump it was Pam runs and it was pleasing! Yes, trying harder will be definitely in moderation FChicken. It was my suggestion to try harder and I queried whether I could do damage or be at risk; consultant didn't think so and I know from my full heart scans my heart is functioning ok. Tried harder again this morning during my 4.1 miles and managed a few (8) runs of one minute. Not as easy a feeling as yesterday but I was tired from the off.

A lovely chatty 30:30 at club run on Thursday. parkrun this morning…Garmin plan was 1.5 miles easy/1.5 miles hard. I ran continuously to 1.7 miles then had a few 30 sec walks. Still managed negative splits. Paul Sinton-Hewitt was tailwalking ….I didn’t realise who he was until I saw the results! I wondered why everyone wanted their photo taken with him 😂

Tut tut, I'm afraid I had no idea who he was so googled him! I don't do park runs so it wouldn't have sparked off a memory! Good runs lin50 ...chatty club runs sound ok to me today but in my 30's a club run was a race! Splendid park run you did today.

8 mile jog/walk earlier, up from 7 miles last Monday. Changed jog/walk from 4:1 min ratio to 5:1. Made notes of how run felt. Aim to up distance to 9 miles next Monday and will probably tweak the jog/walk ratio. Main purpose is to build up distance, not worried about pace on these sessions. Started back at track last Wednesday, so using that to try and get a bit of pace back in the legs. Also parkrun most weeks, so can adapt pace up or down there if necessary. Well done again everyone on your efforts.

Quite brilliant GeneHunt59 ! Sensible way to build up distance and pace. Upped my game again today although it's very very modest compared with folks here! It's my once a week thing now... 6 x 2 minutes run and 2 X one minute run with equal recovery. As expected it was hard going but showing some improvement at last. Glad it's done and over til next week.🤣
