Week 11 of 18

A bit of a slip this week as I ran out of mental steam and ended up skipping my step-back long run. Still, I got two good sessions in around the field: late night intervals under a glorious full moon, and then a Saturday morning tempo effort under a similarly fabulous early spring sun. Conditions underfoot have been great - soft but not slippery.

So the infographic looks a bit sub standard this week, but if you were to name one recurrent theme on the RC forum it would probably be reboots. Only 4 serious weeks left to go for me now before taper time, so it's time to dig in and push on.

Additions to the A-Z this week:

Enema of the State
Fever

   

Out at 6 this morning for another interval session around the field. It's now light at that time, and for the first time I was able to time my intervals by actually looking at my watch rather than counting steps. I'm not hitting the pace that I'd like on the intervals, partly because I'm sprinting longer and recovering shorter, and partly because... I don't feel the need to.

17 miler next weekend.
