This blog is mainly to help me and Ron (my fabulous coach) keep track of what is going on in my training. Good days. Bad days. Successes and failures. Aches and pains. That sort of thing. But please come visit once in a while to see how we're getting on!

A good medium-long tempo around the Heath

22M double; medium-long tempo run & recovery run
15M am with miles 1-12 at tempo (no Garmin)
7M pm recovery run

I prized myself out of bed at 5.20 this morning to give me enough time to run this one hard. I am so slow to warm up in the mornings, I need about 15 minutes walking around the house before my muscles are the right length, let alone have the ability to run.

I ran twice around my usual loop that runs around the perimeter of the Heath on the roads and then to work. I warmed up on the section from home to Swains Lane and then picked up the effort. My legs felt great. Really great, the whole way. I had a really positive rhythm, particularly on the flat sections in the second half (though without a Garmin, I don't know what my actual pace was).
