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!

My first timed long run of the year

22M am crescendo long run at 6.45-6.15-5.45min/M

I was a bit scared about today's run. Fast long runs are always intimidating, but I was more nervous today because I had no clue how my legs would respond. As it turned out, they were fine stamina-wise. They didn't tighten up at all. But they were predictably lacking in zip. I was running at least 15s a mile faster than this per mile in the autumn. Still, I was chuffed that I held it together. I had a bit of a stitch in the last two miles.
