Just think of September as stepping stone to next target so no pressure. Best luck.
Wottle wrote: » thanks Kenny and you're of course correct but the thoughts of just easy running is soul destroying, so just trying to break it up a little with sth quicker but not too hard. This week I'll run about 30 miles, 4 of which were in the 7 minute bracket and the rest 9 and 10 minute miling. I do need to keep the faster stuff in check as I tend to get carried away, too much too soon and then motivation is gone, so Ill make sure I get plenty of easy as well, thanks.

If you think a few faster sessions will help you well and good. More mile = racing smiles. Youre last week or so look good. Keep it up and maybe pick some realistic short term targets to keep motivation up.
