The rest of 2011 - between marathons

Bit harsh on yourself Sweder. I've got the P2P down as a roaring success on all counts. I doubt many could put that performance in given your commitments.

Chasing times and chasing experiences are two different things though aren't they?

If you want to aim for a decent time at Brighton then, yes, consistency is the key. Think of a 3D printer putting down layer after layer. Gradual, unbroken improvement. 3 steps forward, 1 step back. 3 steps forward, 1 step back.

When it comes to intervals there's a tendency to a) run the session faster than you planned and b) run the first half faster then the second. The key is to plan appropriately then stick to the plan. And it's harder than you think.

Anyway after a nasty calf injury I've only got flat, slow running to look forward to for the next few weeks. Better than nothing though, i can tell you.
