3 Peaks Looming
March 25th, 2009 by Andy NicollI know I’ve not posted for a while but I’m still here and still putting in the training.
Last week after the Hobble I had a very steady week but still managed a speed session on the Tuesday, a run on Wednesday and a bike to work and run on Thursday. Then Saturday I did a long bike ride into the dales which was nice but for the cheeky wind which seemed to be with me all the way round…here’s the route http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2656087
Then I ran with my dog 3 times on Sunday - nothing long or hard - just a 25 min jog 1st thing (with my youngest son) then ran down to watch my eldest play footy - then ran home again before having the mums and dad around for Sunday lunch (how’s that for fitting training in around the family).
I’m feeling a bit tired and off pace this week - don’t know why - I’ll try and run through it.
No races planned now until 5th April when it’s the Baildon Boundary off road 1/2 marathon - I’d like to try and break 1hr 30 for this which I’ve not done before (best 1.32). Then 2 weeks later it’s the 3 Peaks where I’d REALLY like to get uner 3 1/2 hours.
Must go now got to take my son to footy then I’ll sneak in a quick 45 min session (off road with headtorch me thinks) while he trains.
