larkim Mar 2018 9:30pm, 29 Mar 2018 4,269 posts	0 larkim Looks like your target time is set then Baz Nearly succumbed to the weather tonight, after putting off 10m with 5x1k last night and watching the weather be dry all day, left myself the only rainy and windy part of the day to get it done. After getting soaked on the warm up, was cautious at the start, but last four reps were bang in line with the equivalent session on the way to Chester last year, and the final rep was the fastest of the lot (3:38). Glad my route for reps is made up of one 440m loop so the wind impact gets nullified Also noticed that this month is likely to be my highest volume ever. Not much by standards round here at 210 but it's sneaked up on me, helped with my Lent commitment to at least 2 miles a day. Just need the trails to dry out a bit now whilst everyone else gets excited about spring marathons proper.
