No foot pain, though my legs felt heavy. This was a fasted run so not surprising really, especially considering my lack of runs the last 2 weeks. I've decided to go for the marathon. Hurrah!!!... read more

Thanks so much for all your kind words. I appreciate the positivity a lot! I need ot start doing a weights again and get swimming. My lack of cross training is clearly having repercussions now. I used to be so good at the whole cross training thing years ago. Sigh.

good Edinburgh! 10.13 mi 01:26 08:31 pace
Happy as I got a longish one done early in the week. This is a consolidation week in my programme so the long one is only 14, assuming I fit it in. I seem to have a blister on my instep. My second ... read more

good ...and then some. 6.04 mi 00:58 09:32 pace
Went round the hill and down to Cameron Toll. Felt strong at the end and if I'd had time I would've carried on, but I think the good will of my babysitter was on the line.

Great Performance:
She's an awesome pacer. I had a rough day but would run with Emma anytime. And the organization was terrible.

great At last... 6.07 mi 00:49 08:03 pace
...something approximating a tempo run, without being totally laughable. Felt good throughout. Huzzah. Random streets just to make up the mileage.

good post-tummy bug run. 6.43 mi 00:56 08:45 pace
Not too bad all things considered. Good to get back out and was pretty much fasted as hadn't eaten anything but a few slices of toast for 4 days.

great 6.71 mi 00:55 08:13 pace
This run felt great. One of those runs that makes you realise why you run and makes you feel glad to be alive. I even used my roller when I got in, though that bit hurt.
