Weeklyish Running update...
So i've been well up for my running in the last week...hence the actual weekly update...
That'd be 30Ks in the last 5 days, that's a lot for little old me, and i feel just fine!
Last Weds cheek run...
Just a quick 3.5K around the park in Bromley, easy run, coincided with a trip to Tesco!
Last Thursday.... tired intervals
I was a bit short on sleep following having been away for a week. I'd just driven back from London, getting up at 4.00 a.m. and wanted to run on the Thursday, I had intended to go out later, but I decided to head out around 9.00 shortly before I got back, I was sort of 'now or never'.
I headed up to the track and did some basic, but slower than usual intervals....
At least I got 'em in! I even chucked in a couple of 200s...
Saturday long run....
I headed out earlyish for a long run, flexible in mind, having reached a certain juncture I decided to turn left and extend my route - it had been on my radar for a while, I just plodded on, ended up doing 14Ks still a way out of the city centre, bit further than I guestimated but it was a good run.
Sad to say that in a few years time a new bypass will disrupt this otherwise very nice country lane peaceful run!
My first proper long run in a very long time! More of this!
Today's intervals..
I was a bit more up for it today... I headed out and did my usual 800 and then 3 times 400 intervals... the legs were a little tired after that long run less than 48 hours earlier but I kept an eye on how I felt and I know I kept well within my limits.
NB I was taking it a little easy as I'd been hitting it harder, and these are slower, but man LOOK AT THAT CONSISTENCY WITH THE PACE!
Interesting to note that if I do a 400 at a 3.55 pace it doesn't really push my HR to max these days but it still hurts, maybe I should be pushing further, but intuitively I think holding back a little on these intervals is better for me!
Next weeks plans...
I'll see how it goes, the next run is gonna be easy, that's for sure!

That's looking great. Need to mix up the runs to keep it fresh. I like the long runs for exploring the area and seeing what changes. I'll skip if whilst it's really hot though. Looks like it could get cooler again soon.

I am getting back into my longer runs too - I know what you mean they do give you more scope to explore the area!
