More solid running this week
Tuesday - 4.1 miles on the treadmill. 5 mins warm up, followed by 20 mins at 14.4k, then 5 mins cool down. Felt quite hard.
Wednesday 9 miles on the trail, at a hard tempo level wiTh the running club in Tring. This is proving a blessing. Whilst we slow at stiles for the group to concertina back together, the fastest runner pushed hard for long stretches and we did a 6.10 final mile which was great. I had to work really hard to keep up and worked so much harder than I would on my own. Tough!
Saturday 7.5 mile trail run in Ampthill. This ended up as a slow run as I was heavy legged from Wednesday still which I had been surprised about. He hills were tough but it was a lovely dat and very enjoyable to be out.
Sunday 10 miles road run in 1h14mins at a steady tempo effort. Lovely day but a bit warm. Decided to use gels for this after listening to Matt Dixon on the marathon talk podcast discuss fuelling properly during training to ensure a good performance and to help recovery. Felt good after Saturdays slow day.
Total miles for the week 30.6 with 4.1 in the mizuno's, 16.5 in the ASIC fuji's and 10 in the asic gel racer's.
