Kaizen Run Club does FLAT hills!
Tuesday night at Kaizen Run Club trains for the Santa Dash and we did some hill work… I have a saying with hills… don’t call them hills. Don’t even think about them as hills. Look down at the ground and … Continue reading
Thursday Thoughts
After my run this morning, I had quite few thoughts for Thursday. 1. It seems that Spring has finally sprung! I haven’t run in the morning for over two weeks (due to my cold and forced rest)… and this morning … Continue reading

Wk1 – 17.3M hilly in the wind and rain with ja
I had planned on doing about 20 mile this weekend, but when the opportunity to run less distance over hills with Julie Ann came along I thought that would be a good idea. We ended up doing just over 17 … Continue reading
Long run plans and excuses excuses

Wk1 – 40 minutes of hills then Bodypump Express
I had a rather optimistic 7 miles of hills planned this morning, but I arranged to run with Jackie before her body pump class, and as it was the first hill session of the year, I decided it would be … Continue reading
WK31 – 5M treadmill hills then Insanity Day 14
Wednesday night and it was pouring so I decided to run on the treadmill. I like running in the rain, but I knew I had to do an Insanity workout after my run, so I didn’t want to do it … Continue reading

Wednesday night and it was hill reps followed by Insanity Day 11: Cardio Power and Resistance. After the pressure I had put on myself to run a fast 10k on Wednesday, I thought hill reps would be a great idea to … Continue reading

Wk21 – 10.25M hilly Pollock Park
Wednesday night and I had a slightly hilly 10 miles around Pollock Park planned. I’ve realised I prefer running in the morning – getting it out of the way, so I don’t put it off… but 10 miles (1:20) is … Continue reading
Wk18 – 16M Newton Mearns hilly
Saturday morning before we fly out to Portugal, and I wanted to get a long run with hills in. Since the marathon the most I’ve run was 11 miles and it was nice and comfortable… I really felt like I … Continue reading
