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!

'Medium-long' crescendo

14M medium-long crescendo

We are off to Zurich for the weekend, so I squeezed in just one run this morning early-early - a crescendo 14 miler. My legs didn't feel in the mood only 36 hours after my mile reps in Wednesday evening, but they warmed up by about mile four and I converted what felt like it was going to be a wash-out into a decent crescendo effort.

I think my hard medium-long runs on the way to work have been one of the big differences with my training this summer/autumn. Previously, they have always been the ones to suffer when I get tired at high mileage, probably because they are both mentally and physically tough and as a result hard to deliver on mod-week. This one was not as good as some of my recent ones, but it wasn't a bad effort.
