RE: Stable April
Took to the streets with Chris, MLCM Jr#1 yesterday morning for another of the local demanding 16km hilly circuits. It was a good run in slightly chilly conditions and I'm feeling confident about the half mara in three and a bit weeks time.
When I say "confident" I mean confident of running it comfortably, but will I go under two hours again? This 16km course was done at 6:15/km pace - way slower than I'll need for the race, but the local street circuit is very hilly. It was one of my faster runs on this course however, so form is OK.
Anyway, as I said before, I'm really not that fussed about my time in the half (OK I concede it would be nice to go under two hours agaon) - but it's really just another training run on the schedule for a full 42.2 later in the year.
Question is though: to do some proper speed training for the mara, I need to have a target time in mind.
Decisions, decisions!
16.34km 1:42:05
YTD: 570.5km
(I enjoyed this video - the best off-road shoes I ever had were a very cheap pair of Nikes, so this ad is OK by me.)
