Leave your log unattended for a few hours and it turns into all sorts of innuendos. These things should be locked when you can't get near a computer to protect them.

Against all odds I managed to pull myself out of bed at 8:30 and get myself a bit of brekkie before heading to the hills for the planned session. Imagine my disgust when 40 minutes later I hear there is no access whatsoever to the park except for zoogoers. Alas, I returned to my bed after expressing my disgust and disappointment to the radio, who didn't appear to care.
Returning to bed was stupid, it meant I was pressed for time to do anything today but the alternative was a 30-40 minute easy run this evening, all I was able for anyway after a busy day. I would have rathered do hill this morning. 4.2 miles in total. Heading to Wexford tomorrow to oversee the pacers in the half, have my free entry so may aswell run it to get a LSR in - will go on how I'm feeling tomorrow though. Only a couple of weeks now until I start whacking away on my top secret training plan that I received yesterday. Looks much more manageable than I expected, now to stop real life getting in the way...  Now to become reacquainted with my foam roller.

Reluctantly dragged myself out of bed at 7am to head to Wexford with the pacers. As I'd taken charge of organising them I felt that my presence was minutely needed. Unsure at the time whether I'd be up to running or not I packed my gear anyway and headed down with menopause, friend of menopause and ecoli. Once we got there I was about 2% on for running, then Oisin announced he'd forgotten his garmin. A pacer can't run without a garmin, here have mine. Sweet, can't run without a garmin myself. Enjoy your windswept run lads.
Had a nice nap after getting home then headed out for a run. I'm just on a ticking over plan at the moment so the idea was to head for the canal this would give me a 10 - 13 mile run, depending on where I turned off on the way home. Pace was good, legs felt great, kept getting faster - without trying, decided to keep it to 10 and maintain the pace instead of 13 and risk fatiguing and ruining my buzz. Turned off at Portobello bridge and headed home, threw in an extra loop to bring it to 10.4 miles. Good decision in the end, maintaining the pace was tough at the end since I spent the second half of the run running into the wind. Have a great two weeks training behind me now, even Tuesday's session, 'slow' as it was was a great session. Now to keep it consistent...

Monday S&C session. Not feeling motivated. Did not enjoy. At all. Alas, we suffer on. I know from experience how much these help, dropping them from my programme is not an option at the moment. On a pretty tough programme at the moment, I'll start enjoying it when it starts getting easier, then I'll just get a new one and it'll be crap again.
Today 9.21 miles w/4 x 600m + 300m. Did this session a few weeks ago and while some of it was better today it wasn't looking good towards the end. Actually thought looking at my splits as I was going that I was doing much worse than last time but now comparing the two my first two of each rep were miles better than last time even though I was running right into the wind for most of the 600s. Serious stomach problems last couple of days and having dinner at 4 today probably didn't help. Thought 3 hours would be enough to get the dinner out of the system. I was wrong. We live and learn... Happier now after disecting this session and comparing it to the last time I did it than I was when I was finishing up. Don't think doing the gym sessions on Mondays are doing my intervals any favours though. A case of keep doing them on Mondays and sacrifice a few seconds in the intervals for a few weeks until I get used to the S&C again or change my programme around a bit.

I only managed a subway for ‘lunch ‘ @ 3:30 today hadn't eaten since 8 and went for the steak and cheese with all the trimmings. Needless to say the olives and ranch dressing started to rear their ugly heads about halfway through my session
