8M am incl 8x1.2K up & down Parliament Hill reps in 5m12s-5m22s off 90s jog
So I'm going to get properly fit again! My aim is to be fully fit in time to try for a PB in the Great North Run on September 15th... and then potentially a marathon in October (I've entered both Amsterdam and Frankfurt which are in the last two weeks of October and will decide closer to the time which will suit me better).
I'm going to have to be a bit more creative in terms of when I fit in my running. As the lady in Kwik-Fit put it, I'm a family man... And that means I don't really want to be disappearing off for hours on end from home.
But Hana seems to be a good sleeper, so I took advantage of that this morning by waking early (5.45) and heading out of the door for some Parliament Hill reps. I managed to mash out 8 not very fast but plenty painful reps.
I got home again before Hana and Yasmin had woken, a real success and encouragement that I'll be able to manage a proper training pattern without disrupting home life too much. I've never been the biggest sleeper, so as long as Hana remains a good sleeper I think the early morning option is a sustainable one.
