I signed up to Dublin Marathon recently and am strongly thinking about following P&D up to 55 miles per week plan.


Id love to know some opinions on the plan? What sort of time should be achievable from it? General reviews? Anything would be a great help.


Also Im thinking about signing up to the Clontarf Half as a training race. Any reviews/opinions on that?

Lazy week off as a result of few dats off work, my birthday and some laziness. yesterday was meant to be a return to running but pints friday night killed that.

Yesterday:

About an hours walk up Bray head. Lovely weather. Then a trip to the gym in the evening. 1000 metre row warm up. Chest and shoulders weights. Changing this to high reps low weights.

Today:

Supposedly a long run. I type this sitting on a bench in Phoenix Park. Gave up after 5 miles. Terrible effort. Still feeling completely dehydrated from the beer. Some day ill learn!

5 miles in 44 minutes.

Got physio on my shoulder during the week. Working on loosening it up as its horribly tight. Listening to a lot my Kelly Starret podcasts of late. Very interesting info.

Overall the week off was no harm. Marathon training starting soon so no time off then.

Now I have to walk home from the Park. Thats what I get for being a lazy booze hound!!
