Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Evening all :)

Been watering the garden and I seem to have cold, wet feet.

Evening, Rosehip. I might have a little walk tomorrow before work and do some more weight training after work.

Ness: project Joker. It's quite a commitment and having three meaningful sessions a week, every week for ten weeks can be a bit taxing. I suggested on the polling page that the training cycle length be amendable, so that the older and/or more frangible Fetchies could complete the three sessions over a longer cycle - say 9 or 10 days - but it didn't seem to set the heather alight. Shame.

I find the suggested pacings don't make me any faster and so I have to tweak them up to make a difference. Perhaps I'm not lemming enough for all-out 5k-ing and need to be fitter than target pace.

But, I like the idea of project Joker: just in case my last post sounds unintentionally negative.

Cheers Ness - needed that this evening.

More relevantly I’m just easing back into running after having not done much for a few weeks

Thanks for your comment, ZenTaoPlurp. I’ll have a look at the sessions and see if they fit. Once I’m back to teaching full time it might be a bit more of a challenge.

Understandable, HellsBells. Hope the return to running is enjoyable for you.

It’s ok, ZenTaoPlurp. I think you have to tell it like it is for you. Some schedules don’t suite some people. A while back I tried a Runner’s World Smartcoach schedule and it just didn’t work for me. The Hal Higdon ones do seem to provide me a useful framework for training.
