Planned for today - 70 minutes easy. Did 12km / 7.46 miles today at 9.54/mile average pace. Looking at the paces on my Garmin log makes it really obvious where I was running in and out of the wind, was trying to keep it a consistent effort but paces range from 9.35ish/mile to well outside 10 min/mile! Thankfully the rain stayed away for the duration of my run.
Week: 32.9 miles - first 30+ week post-Barcelona
Would like also to mention a certain text from a certain person (who will remain anonymous) yesterday evening. "Oh when the saints go marchin in" - Talk about counting your chickens before they were hatched :pac: 0 -

Great running this weekend... and for braving that wind! Once this marathon is done and dusted, I'll have to join you for some hill reps!
Might actually start putting that session up on the group training sessions thread, I'm sure there are a few other people around who might like to have their legs burnt by that hill 0 -

Intervals at UCD track today, with menopause, claralara and digger. Plan was 4x200, 1x600, 2x400 (200m jog recoveries) + 15 min easy warm-up and cooldown.
Splits for 200s:
1:25 (310m, dunno how that happened)
0:52
0:53
0:54
600m:
2:57 (way slower than the intended 2:45!
)
400m:
1:51
1:51
Followed this up with quite a decent amount (nearly 5km!) of easy-paced cooling down. Total distance covered 10.37km. Good to get some intervals in, but I am now rather worried about Saturday! No zip in my legs at all, feels like I've lost so much sharpness since I've been injured. Back in January I was doing 10x400m sessions with all the reps faster than those 1:51s...0 -

I wouldnt stress about the times too much. Your 600 was bit slower than intended but the 200s were also quicker than planned which is something you need to take into account and the wind was prob a factor.
Just get out and enjoy the race on Sat plenty of time to be chasing times and "sharpness" you are still in very early stages of your come back so dont worry and just give it a lash. The race itself will help bring you on leaps and bounds0 -

Best of luck in the 5k at the weekend. You've put in all that patience during your injury and recovery, now it's time to reap the rewards!
Fingers crossed! (currently trying to stop a tickly throat from exploding into full-on manflu :eek:)
Best of luck to yourself this weekend missus! Which day is your race on?0 -

Very short, easy run with a few strides this evening. Average pace 9.38/mile overall, 2.58 miles covered. Felt tougher than it should, though I'm *still* partly blaming the wind for that. **** sake, will it not just go away? :eek:
Really hoping the sore throat fecks off soon too, it's incredibly annoying 0 -

Better of resting up and listening to the body. Running for the sake of running is only gonna make things worse and do more harm than good. Get better soon0 -
