    Ok now that you 2 have filled us in with your scheduled extra curricular activities we will get back to the TT ;)

    The few sessions I have been doing have been going really well! Wasn't as hyped up for this as the other TT's but after today's session i'm feeling really good & now looking forward to testing out my ability! Hopefully we get some nice weather too...always a bonus :D

    What's extra curricular about supplementary training? Lol

    Hmmm if that's what you call it? No wonder it's only twice a year ;)

    Went out today to plan my route for next week.. Ended up bumping in to a county council van with rubbish on the back and spotted 3 lovely garden chairs. He said he'd leave them in a spot for me.

    Rang my husband to collect them... Had a bit of a back and forth while he asked why we needed them :confused: .

    Whatever about the Time Trial next weekend... I'm delighted with myself that I was able to call my husband, give instructions and have a full blown argument all at what McMillan tells me is my 10k training pace :pac: Which happened to be the pace I did the 5k TT at and I was half dead doing it :D

    *boom*

    *mic drop*

    *moonwalks out*

    Headed over the the Phoenix Park today to check out next week's 10k route (the National 10k / GIR course). I know the Park pretty well by now but I've never run this particular combination of roads, which offers a few sharp enough hills in the first half, and the North Road drag in the second. I'll have my work cut out for me trying to pace this one properly!

    I week to go and I *think* I'm ready for this one.
    Phoenix Park is the venue. Couple of laps of Chesterfield Ave/North Rd and finish off at the gates.

    Interesting route - up Chesterfield or up North Road (or one of each?)

    Starting off on North Rd, just around by Hole in the Wall, head towards gates to the Aras, turn left up Chesterfield, hang a right onto North Rd and back down again. Do this twice. After second loop, back onto Chesterfield in opposite direction, around by the back of the polo grounds and down towards the main gate.

    Think that’s a R up Chesterfield. Fast finish! Good luck.

    That's 4 (5 if you round down Edinrunna's very specific distance) 10 minuters with a target of 2.8km! what's so popular about that length??? I chose it a little (very) arbitrarily...

    Mini battle there...:-)

    I looked to see what your target was and said "yeah il have that guy!" :cool:

    Its a realistc but stretch goal for me. I would love to do the 3k in 10mins, but its just not in my system, if i do the 2800m it will actually be faster than my Mile TT time from last one, so il take that as an improvement.

    (And perhaps will push on to see how long the 3K takes, but more than likely will pack it in as soon as the 10min pain train is over!)

    Best of luck on Saturday!

    I’m a fat auld lad who’ll more than likely be suffering a hangover on Saturday, if I beat ye young lads ye should hang yer heads in shame!!!

    i'm gonna go for 10m in 61mins.

    chickening out on the 10mins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,412 ✭✭✭Lazare


    I'm gonna switch to 10k, didn't do enough to get ready for an assault on 10m with the 5k race last weekend.

    Can you stick me down for 41:45

    Might do Corkagh parkrun route twice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Annie get your Run


    I'm out, the body is just not up to speed right now for various reasons. Best of luck to everyone on Saturday!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,109 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    I'm out too. :(

    Got a cramp in my right calf that worsened over a number of days, and while I'm back running I haven't done anything faster than a jog for 2 weeks.
