I was supposed to be running another track 10,000m tomorrow night at Nuneaton...... but yesterday's visit to the physio has put paid to that, and i need to lay off the hard running this week to let my hamstrings recover.

Yeah i was lapped 3 times by the winner who ran 32:40........ was also lapped twice by a clubmate and training partner who ran 34:00 (suspect i'll be hearing a lot about this tonight at training!!) However i also lapped a couple of guys several times who were well outside 40mins.

Ran 38:18 in the 10,000 metres at Nuneaton on the track last night. On the face of it, a poor time. But that distance on the track really is a grim undertaking...... i was cut adrift from the lead pack almost immediately, and there was a guy on my shoulder for 5 or 6 laps, but he was...

Not entirely sure. Knowledgeable people within the club have said i should be capable of running under 36mins on a good day.... and while i'm not quite so optimistic, i think i'm capable of breaking 37mins on a good day. Although the combination of..... - race is on the track - not...

Down the uni in pissing rain on saturday morning. 6 x 1 mile, with 2 minute rests. Nice and controlled, just getting solid miles in without going crazy. 5:54 5:53 5:51 5:50 5:51 5:51 Racing tomorrow at Pingles, 10,000m on the track....... its the Leicestershire County Champs but running as...

Football club in being run like a business shocker. Not saying i agree with the prices, but is anybody actually surprised.

Looks really nice there. Gonna be 40+ on the east of Sicily tomorrow

Whereabouts in Sicily?

Ran the Northbrook 10km today, and as planned, it formed the middle section of a long run (i'd knocked up 17.5 miles by the time i got home). Ran 40mins flat (ok..... 40:04) Had hoped for a little quicker..... the plan had been to run the majority uphill first 6km in as close to 40min pace...

Another club session last night, and another ordeal in 30 deg heat on the track. 800mtrs 2 x 400mtrs 3 x 200mtrs 800 (target 2:32) 2:37 400s (target 72) 72 70 200s (target 32) 33 33 33 Another one where i felt poor, although not much of a surprise in the conditions. Northbrook 10km on...

They weren't full sprints...... 200mtrs uphill is too far to fully sprint...... and 5 of them, thats a full km of effort between each 3 minute rep. But they were decent consistent pace....... for me they were generally between about 3:42-3:49/km Then slow jog back down after each one, so...

Nice one..... its a tricky one indeed. We were on the grass at Warwick Uni tonight in warm and sunny conditions. 3 minutes 5 x 200mtr uphills 3 minutes 5 x 200mtr uphills 3 minutes My sort of session.... a bit of a grind, and nothing excessively speedy. Managed to make each 3 min rep...

i agree with Gimoc i am FURIOUS

I did a solo session at the Uni this morning. 6 x 1 mile with 2 minute rests. 5:53 5:49 5:48 5:48 5:47 5:47 The aim was to get a decent amount of good quality work in, without running at a pace that would "empty the tank" before the coming week.... i didn't really know exactly what pace that...

Wales match was on in the gym. They were abject.

Remember going around 99 or 2000 and you could just walk into the park with a load of booze. Was a bit "wild west" back then, seemed to be a fair bit of trouble. Only went for the DnB though.

I've been pressurised into doing the Northbrook 10km a week on sunday. Have said i'll do it, but on condition that i'm "training through", will not drop any sessions or taper for it, and just treat it as a hard run. In fact i'll probably run to the start (5 miles or so) and run home after...

Oggy for me. What a side that was.... Quinn and Rosario up front. Ndlovu and Gallacher. Babb in defence.
