This week has been pretty good. The really cold weather has gone, and the milage has been high! :)
Starting the week on Monday now, this is how the week looked..
Mon - 11 mile run to work, back along the canal
Tues - 7.5 mile SHM fast Timperly route
Weds - 10 mile run to work and back
Thurs - 5 mile SHM - Track work. did 16 x 300mts plus run there and back
Fri - 0 miles Rest day
Sat - 17 miles Brooklands, Hale, Bowden, Carrington. Steady run. around 3hr with stops
Sun - 18.5 miles Bowden, loops round TPT/Canal, Dunham Massey and back.
Total for week 69 miles
Cross training has consisted of Circuit training on Monday eve, and 3 days cycling to work. (Tues, Thursday & Fri)
Not been circuit training for a few weeks, and i felt it! Also started to try and get 30 - 50 press-ups and sit ups each night.
The mileage this week has been surprisingly high. my intension was alwas to run both sat and sunday, but I wasn't planning to run so far on the Sunday.... Wanting to stick to the 10% rule i had a 10 miles planned but running to meet Paul kinda blew this, as it was about 4.5 miles to his house!
Still, running so far on consecutive days was encouraging and exactly what i need to be doing. Plus i had my pack on both days, around 5kg to start, but did have lots of fluids on board..
