A Cunning Plan……
February 20th, 2009 by Andy NicollThis week so far :-
Sunday afternoon (after my 52 mile bike ride) - 30 mins run with kids and dog
Monday - AM 20 mins steady (The longer days now mean I can now run off road with my dog every morning - yeagh!!)
Tuesday - AM 20 mins steady - PM 10 x 1.5 min efforts with 1 min recoveries. Efforts = 1 min 10 at 10k pace + 20 seconds at 5 k pace - a tough workout.
Wednesday - AM 20 mins steady
Thursday - AM 20 mins steady - PM 9 miles on the road 1hr and 6 mins- see http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2573153
Friday - AM 20 mins steady then a day in Filey with the family and dog - great day had by all - dog now bushed after chasing every other dog on the beach.
Now for my cunning plan….Although I’m planning on 2 big cycle races this year (the Fred Whitton and La Marmotte), I’ve been feeling that I’ve not really got any serious running challenges to focus on. So I’ve dreamt one up and I’ll give you the details soon. For now, let’s say that it’s going to be a solo long distance run aimed at raising money for charity. I don’t normally do runs for charity but I have a good reason to do so this year so thought I might try and raise a few quid by doing something a bit unusual - watch this space for details…..
