Another excellent 8 miles for me today. avg HR 141(65%) pace 11:55/mi
I do seem to be getting quicker for the same or less effort and once again no battle with the Garmin.
Whether it was as simple as being shown how to d it last week, when I went out for a slow mince with WW, or whether it has just clicked I don't know, but hope the streak continues.
Was cruising along at around 11:00 pace at one point, which is the slower of my intended MP's, so think the sub 5hr marathon is looking more of a reality now.
anyway feeling very happy, didn't want to turn round and come home today.
Back to the full week next week LSR of 15 miles.

I know Ian, thats 4 in a row now! Not knocking it though, just hope I can keep the streak going!
It is as if the light may have finally been turned on! I did find I could push things slightly and not overshoot the 70% mark(149 bpm)

You're doing great, Girlie!
I managed a 10.5k this morning but it was a mixture...the first 7 or so at my friend's 70%, and then we split up and I continued at my slightly faster pace for 70%.
I, too, feel I may be turning the corner and beginning to see some very humble beginnings of porgress! Both calves are a bit tight and needing TLC today, so it's probably just as well that I won't get to do much while we're on hols for the next week or so!

Girlie - thats great.
I woke late this morning which meant i was out running at noon, oh yes very Noel Coward
Very surprised as it was hot ran 4.1 miles, my short course. Expected to be slower/higher HR but averaged 6:41 per km which is normal. HR rose a little towards end of run but remained under 70% (68%)
Thats 2 good runs on the trot, i'm hoping too that i am starting to see some results
Planning on a longer run tomorrow,
