Three consecutive days running, too. Quite a lot. How did the last two miles feel?

That's to be expected. He's probably had a lot more sleep than you.... (besides being YOUR SON!) xxx

compartmental. Xc is always quality, such an excercise in management to keep the effort going til the end. LindsD. Nice splits, always nice to have that level of consistency in a race. My race was a bit different, Borders League and a personal worst on that course, but plenty of positives. Knew my bad back would start to seize, so went out hard and in the middle of a 5.4 mile race managed my fastest 5k for almost two years. Also, although I slowed in the last two miles, tried to relax as much as possible and keep going through the pain and maintain my form; so actually pleased with the splits: 6:24 6:43 7:06 7:10 7:15 Then the last .4 in 6:58 pace, helped by racing a girl from the other training group on Tuesday track, personal pride kicked in😀 |

It's interesting that races aren't always quality and when they are there are other reasons for the quality sticker besides PBs or otherwise great results. You point out some of those other reasons above, bonnets, re compartmental and Linds - and perfectly explain your own. It's so satisfying to get real positives - all of your own making - from good sessions and races. Are you 'doing' anything about your back, bonners? It sounds bad. |

Just plenty of exercises from the physio, rock tape, rolling and continuing the core work. Unfortunately is a historic injury and with doing two jobs at the moment, including a lot of van driving I'm struggling a bit. But I'm ever hopeful it will all come good eventually
