As Chris says, 5 years since the trainer 'episode', seems recent!!!!

Finally got around to putting in a few of the 2024 targets....hopefully one or two more will pop up as the year gets started. Brunski, you know you want to :-)

I've not ruled it out jda, but I've not ruled it in either. I've been adding mileage the last few weeks and I'm likely to reach 50 miles either this week or next.

Boston UK might be an option on 28th April, but I'll let you know if/when any sidebar entries might be required 👍🏻

Tried a workout for the first time in an age today, absolutely shockingly poor, no speed at all i my legs and I binned it off after 4 intervals (rather than the planned 6). At least my heart and lungs weren't struggling though. I'll have to improve rapidly over the next few weeks...

jda could I swap a chunk of my pace for a chunk of your marathon endurance?

Feel we could combine strengths to comfortably go sub 2:45.

It could be the CV19 jda - be cautious.

The first hard session is always tough, onwards and upwards!

Stick me in the sidebar for a 2:55 please jda. 12 weeks tomorrow and I should be up to 50 miles this week so starting from a decent position.

Boston (Lincs) 28th April 2024.

Like a moth to a flame :-)

As for me, I'll keep plugging away and see what happens. 10k race next weekend and maybe a HM the week after. I don't feel any covid effects, just a bit sluggish.
