21 Weeks to go

A better week plus a full day skiing on Saturday. Did a flat long run on the Sunday and went through the half marathon distance at 1hr39mins and felt good not sure I have another 9 mins in me but another 3 weeks of training to go.

Better week last week we forced ourselves to run in the snow that was beginning to thaw, and has mostly now cleared from the paths. Times are slow mixture of ice/snow and lack of speed. Need to do sprint training. Sunday run the watch died as I had not charged it most of the week so finished the run at 22/23 Km. Also skied both Sat and Sun.

23 Weeks to go

Too much snow and ice and a large sprinkling of lazy made for 3 runs last week. 2 * 13km then the prom classic 10km race yesterday, embarresed to say it was 44 mins but in my defence I didnt get time to warm up (lazy problem again) and over the past 3 weeks I ate most of the christmas cake myself! Aiming for a fast Semi in mid Febuary.

24 Weeks to go

Pain in my left foot, turned out to be an ingrown toenail and the beggar is deep. Will have to dig it out. Its from the big toenail I lost last May after the Mercontour assault coarse.
Anyway I did not do much this week, other than eat drink, ski and walk the dogs the runs I did do were all slow. Looking to ramp up over the next 5 weeks to a fast semi in Cannes.
