18 with 10 at MP....was tough work, but pleased with 6:48, 6:46, 6:47, 6:48, 6:48, 6:51, 6:49, 6:48, 6:49, 6:50 - it was the consistency of pacing that I was most pleased with. This was the last MP my plan has but I need to see if I can work another couple of them in.

Nicely done Bazo ! Your in great shape - how did they feel? Could you knock another 16 out like that? I reckon your mentally in the sub 3 zone now and that's half the battle. Managed 11.5 miles today at similar pace to the disastrous half I ran earlier this month - big difference in how I felt - enjoyed it, didn't feel like upping the pace when half the pack started to wind it up in last 3 miles but I stuck with the other 2 guys. Still niggle in my back but ibuprofen kept it at bay. Only issue now is horrid indigestion probably from the ibuprofen  Would love to keep these strong Sunday runs up over winter and start January with a strong base for London

Thx Lou and Iam Lou to be honest I couldn't have held that for much longer although it did feel ok to keep the pace consistent. I was pleased when the tenth mile beeped a d I could take a wee breather. . However this came at the end of a 70 mile week that had a set of intervals so that doesn't surprise me. If I can get two or three more of these under my belt I will be very happy. |

20.5m for me today, progressive but a bit erratic as done up on the Ridgeway with some serious hills thrown in. Pleasing run though, hill work as part of a long run is hard work!

Great consistent pacing there Baz, glad to hear you're enjoying running again Lou, and nice miles there Peacey. A hilly, trailly, slow 18 for me today ( after an even hillier 9 miles yesterday ) - my longest run since start of July. Whole summer has been interrupted by on/off achilles problems. Got Frankfurt 9 weeks today, which will no longer be a pb attempt, may still be a sub 3:15 attempt, but looking quite unlikely, see what happens over next 2 or 3 weeks, now that physio has identified my irregularities and given me strengthening exercises to work on. |
