6.5 miles this morning.
Garmin training plan was 2.5 miles easy, 1 mile steady, 0.5 miles hard.
I did 2.5 miles with random walk breaks, 1 mile at 60:30 and half a mile hard at 30:30.
Finished with 2.5 miles at an easy pace 30:30.
Enjoyed it, but it was getting really warm towards the end.

You're doing some great training lin50, 30/30 seems a good ratio and one which is beyond me currently. Will have to try again!
Four hours out jeffing is very impressive Fenners and an hour is good too!
Been doing varying ratios with distance up to five miles but still stuck on ability to run continuously although one minute continuous runs are ok sometimes. Actually did a four minute run on 13 th when my wife was with me. It was hard going of course and I'm a bit unbalanced/ dizzy momentarily when I stop to start walking again!

@steve45 haven’t seen you on the thread for a while so good to hear from you.

parkrun last Saturday was random walk breaks again, did a couple of miles at 60:30 on Sunday then more 30:30 hill reps on Monday.
Last night’s 5k club run was random walk breaks.

I’m doing the Great South Run again in October so I need to start getting a bit more distance in my runs. Planning on doing 60:30 with a fall back plan of 30:30 depending how I feel on the day.

Got something to say?
