Wk12 – 10k Time trial (with a cold)
Friday morning week 12… I had a 10k time trial to do, but as I’m getting over a cold (and Wednesday’s run was hard because of it) I wasn’t pushing myself to try and beat my two previous 10k time … Continue reading
Wk12 – 4.3M of 0.5M Speed repetitions

The Balloch to Clydebank Half Marathon website doesn’t seem to be updating with the results… I found them here: Balloch to Clydebank Half Marathon Results 2011 I’ll do some analysis on them tomorrow, but I’m happy to say I finished … Continue reading
Wk11 – 6.8M part of the women’s 10k route
Wednesday night run with my friend. We used to do 4 miles around the bridges (nice and flat) but now we’re taking in part of the women’s 10k route to get us used to the route for May. We ran … Continue reading
