A week of two halves.
Tuesday - 6.8k in 30 mins with a 28min 4 miles, weights and core session
Thursday - Bailed on training and decided to rest up for the Berko Half
Sunday - Berk Half - 1h28mins05secs - huge new PB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very satisfied, though my thighs are feeling it from really pounding the down hills. I started off with a 6.30 first mile and after the biggest hill between 2-3 miles was at 28 minutes for 4 miles and then with some down hill, 41 minutes for 6 miles. So far so good. The next hill was hard but still kept at it with a 7 min mile. I then got to 10 miles after some flat, a downhill and an up hill in 1h8mins40secs. This meant with a small down hill, and an up hill at 11.5 miles and a long, downhill last mile I was able to do the last 3.1 miles in 19mins20secs.
4 long weeks of 35-40 miles to go to build some more endurance for the marathon, but 3.15 is far more realistic a target than before!
