"was concentrating on the lass ahead". That's how I run as well Smout.

However, in my case is hampers my performance

Well done Smout. And lol DeeGee.

Nice intervals tuf and rfj.

Last run done before Newry, just a couple of busy days to get over now. So much for resting.

Lol Smout - I like my stats and the more I get the better.....Great run

5 recovery miles back in to work today...body seems to have coped with 2 runs in 12 hours and this week will be a 6 day running week for the first time in maybe 9 months.

Clydebank 10k for me last night too. went little better than plan. ned/hoped. New pb 36:38 with 5k splits per garmin 18:20 and 18:1. Might blog more detail later shall see. Roll on next week for some more speed in legs.

Good 10 k times Smout and HappyT

Good consistent interval session RFJ - that's something I need to start doing more of but will be difficult on my own as I've now left my running club ('in the wilderness' or 'up for bids' )

No running for me this weekend, yes it prob comes as a shock to many of you This weekend it is my task to support Mrs Runa who is running the London to Brighton Challenge (100km) - yep she's more mad than me

Heard the lead runners at Clydebank only ran 6miles as sent wrong way - wondered how so many ran sub 30min.

Great times Smout and HT

And great splits on the intervals RFJ

Here's hoping for nicer weather and less wind for Newry and Edinburgh. I know its probably a little early, but GOOD LUCK

First 6 ran about 400m short apparently Lou. Very good field there and overall result placing not effected but some gutted runners as possible pb's were there for them last night. some would still have been sub 30 even if ran full distance.Organisers very apologetic and free entry to next years event for them but still a hard one for these guys.

Oh and yes not done many intervals sessions and tend to dread them until I actually get doing them and then sort of enjoy them mostly.
I may regret saying ^^^ that as Smout will be kicking my ass at some intervals soon no doubt.
Just after we got our results from 10 k last night she suggested I would be "looking farward" to doing a 5k soon (with view to having go at PB I assume). Errrr NO they hurt and you need to try and run a bit fast. lol

Hmm the talk was of 400m short (someone also mentioned 200m) 200m would possibly be more like it as the race organiser said placings would have been unaffected. However if it was as much as 400m then they would have been as Gilroy in 7th would have been few places higher. On the other hand if only 200 short few I think ran fair bit faster than would expect.

CONFUSED
