About Me
Harmless and perennially unaccomplished old woman, mostly minding my manners because I'm just a paying guest here. Sometimes I forget. NHS workforce survivor. Prone to toxic optimism, but not deluded enough to believe that anyone can do anything if they set their mind to it or that age is just a number. Quite nice in real life. I took up running in 2001 to do just one marathon for charity, and here I still am. I have little talent for it, but once every few years I have a brief flash of mediocrity and then burn out. Realistically, I'm more likely to become a casualty than a beneficiary of age-related attrition in the sport, but I'm not going to sit around waiting for it to happen. Show More...

We're just a short walk away from my favourite Belfast eating place. Add a comment 6.5mi, 1:11:12 Run - General My Garmin said I should have a rest day today, and I don't think it was being entirely silly. Legs still gubbed from yesterday. But I said 50 miles a week, and I was on 43.7 miles, and nothing actually hurt (back of left thigh down to about 0.25/10 today) so I got on with it. Cool, humid, almost damp. Ideally I'd have done a long run, but I don't think I'd have benefitted from it overall, though I did warm up after the first couple of miles. Better to have an easy day and be fit to go again tomorrow. 100 Base. 15th Sep 2024, 12:35pm EvilPixie wrote: Nice run 15th Sep 2024, 12:43pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, Pix :) 15th Sep 2024, 12:46pm Sigh wrote: Well done! 15th Sep 2024, 1:01pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, Sigh :) 15th Sep 2024, 1:08pm Ness wrote: Well done 👍 15th Sep 2024, 1:24pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, Ness :) 15th Sep 2024, 1:29pm Bowman 🇸🇪 wrote: Well, a rest day for an athlete like you can be a slow run I think. :) Well done. 15th Sep 2024, 1:43pm Dvorak wrote: All good.

There is a session in Run Elite which is 10 miles easy then 10 miles alternating half a mile of MP+30s/mile with half a mile of MP-30s/mile. There's no way I'd attempt that, but took the same idea and applied it to a shorter session. 5 miles easy then 5 miles alternating half miles at 9mm and 10mm and jog home. I should have gone down to the coast and run it on the flat, because I ended up too fast without making any effort on the downhills and working too hard on some of the uphills. Not sure I'd rush to do that again instead of a continuous tempo run, but it got a little bit of harder running done. 260 Threshold.

I planned to do 90 minutes easy, but at 3 miles I decided to go on to Gilcrux, and when I got there I persuaded myself very easily to go over the back road to Tallentire since I was there and my legs were bouncy and the sun was shining. I knew this would make the loop 14 miles but had the option of 'phoning eL Bee! to come and pick me up if I started plodding.

FWIW, I remember doing a 16.5 mi LR with 13.1 at MP 8 weeks before my sub 3:30 attempt and I went from 13.1 at goal pace to 26.2 in that time. You were even faster today than what you'd need to do for a sub 4 (9:09). Be proud of yourself, this is a great performance. 6th Oct 2024, 9:21pm tipsku wrote: PS: and a 72.53% WAVA! :-O 6th Oct 2024, 9:23pm WayOfTheDodo wrote: Great race, well done 😀! 6th Oct 2024, 10:37pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks :) I could just as easily have peaked and be off the boil by the time Valencia comes round, but I've got a very easy week sketched in now in the hope that I'll recover properly. 7th Oct 2024, 8:50am geordiegirl wrote: excellent running, great pacing! well done v-rap 7th Oct 2024, 8:52am Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, geordiegirl :) 7th Oct 2024, 6:29pm ♪♫ Synge ♪♫ wrote: Well done! 7th Oct 2024, 7:15pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, Synge :) Add a comment 0.5mi, 10:38 Walk - General To the start. 6th Oct 2024, 9:01am EvilPixie wrote: Good luck 🤞 6th Oct 2024, 9:10am Ness wrote: Have a good one x 6th Oct 2024, 9:35am Velociraptor wrote: Just a little footprint.

Set out to do up to 90 minutes easy with the option, which I took, of some striders. 40dp efforts with 40dp recoveries for one mile starting at 5 miles (so mostly downhill on a quiet road). Legs felt bouncier. That could be because the last three runs were in Triumphs and I wore Speeds today. 178 Base. 10th Oct 2024, 12:56pm Ness wrote: Well done! 👏 10th Oct 2024, 1:04pm Alice the Camel wrote: Good stuff! 10th Oct 2024, 1:12pm EvilPixie wrote: Fab 10th Oct 2024, 1:15pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks :) 10th Oct 2024, 1:46pm Bowman 🇸🇪 wrote: Nice efforts, well run! 10th Oct 2024, 2:03pm Jaks wrote: Well done 👏 10th Oct 2024, 2:08pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks :) No long or hard sessions till I can be sure I'm not incubating the plague, since it's in the house. 10th Oct 2024, 2:36pm riggys99 wrote: Nice set of strides 10th Oct 2024, 2:51pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, riggys99 :) Even managed to accelerate through most of them. 10th Oct 2024, 3:13pm riggys99 wrote: Good legs must be recovering from Sunday 10th Oct 2024, 7:21pm Sigh wrote: Well done! 10th Oct 2024, 7:28pm Velociraptor wrote: Thanks, Sigh :) Add a comment	0mi, 30:00 Cross - Strength Bodyweight and neoprene dumbbells. 11th Oct 2024, 7:19pm Ness wrote: Well done! 👏 Add a comment 8.3mi, 1:28:09 Run - General A short 90 minutes easy (would have settled for 60, but I was running OK).

More a gentle crumple than measuring my length; didn't even stop my Garmin but I did have a short walk up the steep bit of the hill before starting to run again. 52 Recovery. Add a comment 3.1mi, 29:31 Run - General Opted for Bower Park this weekend so that I wouldn't be leaving the invalid home alone for too long. Besides, I hadn't done it this year and Roy gave me a telling off when I met him in the town a couple of weeks ago. It was fine. Still horrible underfoot, and the low light made it difficult to see the path properly in places, but not the worst run I've ever had there. 125 Tempo. 12th Oct 2024, 10:06am EvilPixie wrote: Very nice 12th Oct 2024, 10:14am Jaks wrote: Nice, well done 👏 12th Oct 2024, 10:28am Velociraptor wrote: Thanks :) 12th Oct 2024, 10:39am Sigh wrote: Well done! 12th Oct 2024, 11:04am Mozzer wrote: Nicely run 😊 12th Oct 2024, 11:04am Dvorak wrote: Well, you've got it out of the way ;-) Add a comment 1.2mi, 13:35 Run - General To parkrun. 33 Recovery.
