You forgot to mention you had a very strong finish FD (I forgot to mention that in the car) so another positive thing to take away.
Otherwise yes, I have to agree with you - what an awful race! Bring back Meath races, all is forgiven!

What a day! hope you've recovered??! onwards & upwards indeed 0 -
Gosh, that sounds horrific. Hope the hip will be ok. Meet and Train will be a breeze by comparison! That Munich Mile loop in the Phoenix Park is a perfect training ground, has a bit of everything, just not mucky enough at the moment

Monday 26th October: 10 miles, walking/jogging/shouting
Had an absolute ball out cheering on 15,000+ marathon runners, of the 30 odd people I was hoping to see on the day I missed 6. Great to get into McGrattans too and meet so many novices and everyone else, a good days work by all, well done again to everyone!
Tuesday 27th October 4 miles easy
Body feeling a bit tired after Sunday, hip/glute/lower back a bit sore. Headed to St Catherines Park, tired and 'slightly' hungover after a fantastic & v late night last night celebrating club mates marathon achievements, not unlike here, most had a super day, brand new shiny hard earned PB's and great marathon débuts. Inspirational. The problem with marathons is they are contagious....0 -

Thursday 29th October 4 miles @ hr <135 (ish..)
Well that was an experience & a half!!!!!!! I'm pretty sure when Dubgal talks about naked running none of this is what she has in mind firstly in the park in Ringsend a aul fella walking his dog was, lets say, badly in need of a belt and had a definite builders crack situation going on, that on its own wouldn't phase me although I did speed up a little to get past him as soon as possible . Then I took a different route to normal, off the main road through a sort of industrial area along the river, no one else around but I wasn't paying any heed, until this guy stepped out from a sort of doorway and flashed me :eek: WTF? Have I stepped back into the 80's or something? I had my sunglasses on so he couldn't see my reaction and I pretended not to notice and jogged on, tearing off at breakneck speed when I turned the corner!! It certainly put an end to my low HR run!!
Before all that I was doing a good job of running tall, belly breathing and monitoring the hip & the back, which oddly seem to pain me more when walking or slow running than the faster stuff.0 -

I could say LOADS but I won't!!! Fella doing that for years around there, he's known to pay a visit to Fairview Park from time to time to. I've no doubt you could!! Really? crikey but I suppose in fairness I'm never in around there, usually stick to the main road, have no idea what prompted me to go that way today. I wasn't frightened but it did make me think (when I got over the shock!) that if he'd been up to worse I was a bit vulnerable.. 0

Excuse me, we have more high class gurriers in Fairview park!!!
FD... Couldn't help laughing at your reaction :pac:
what the tearing off at breakneck speed?? I'm not used to gurriers of ANY description*
*although given where my office is located and the csi stuff that goes down every day!!0 -

I thought they'd have all retreated behind closed doors by now. Poor you to encounter the last die-hard who must not have wifi :rolleyes:.
Lol that's exactly what I thought!!! Sure it was a daily occurrence back then unfortunately for this guy, behind closed doors is exactly where he should be.... 0 -

I'm surprised aquinn didn't jump in to point out the hazards of xc for your hip
I should point out that physio also said XC is a super way for runners to build strength and highly recommends it to everyone, that includes you Anna you'll note that the only recommendation was to pear back on the hills in the long runs, not ditch XC.. 0 -

That's not how we read it at all, I think you just didn't listen. He really said no Cross country!0 -
