Yeeee-eeess about Abingdon, it's a kind of planny type plan thing. Not exactly got sign-off from Mrs L, and I intend to run like the wind at RNR a few weeks previously. Plus there is the Standalone 10k which is my local race and I suspect will be the subject of a certain amount of posturing, side-bets and testosterone charged challenges with Joopsy around then as well.
HOWEVER, on the train this morning I had time to reflect on the weekend and we ran 15miles with a short break at 8miles, and it was on an empty stomach with just 500ml of water. And it felt GOOD. Nice slow pace, but HR was lowest ever for that kind of run. And it did get me thinking about another 11.2m and a marathon medal!

Quite impressed by the way my fitness seems to be improving with regard to heart rate for a given effort.
Managed 3.11 miles in 00:24:55 08:01 at 61%WHR which is great considering I ran reasonably hard all weekend and raced yesterday.
Maybe this is an example of what can be achieved with a treadmill? I reiterate what I said earlier, maybe it's worth while some of you giving the treadmill a shot?
Good work Lums.

Treadmill bad. LOL. If I could get near one I would try it. But outside is so much closer at the moment.

I feel the need to rebel soon though. I haven't been told off by anyone on this thread for ages. At this rate I will train all year and get faster and faster - no where is the fun in that!?
Tempo tomorrow am - 1m warm up - 4m @ 8min pace, 2m warm down. Am mixing Hr training with the benefits of running with someone else (Joopsy) and it has reinvigorated me somewhat. Also 8mm is probably 85% for both of us.

Hendo
Lums are you doing too much speedwork before getting your endurance base up to a decent level?
There you go.
