5K PB

Well I was one of the few that turned up to the 5K challenge on Saturday morning the rain must of kept the rest away but it was still a great morning for a run. The light rain was a little blessing because I don’t do well in the heat plus was feeling strong from Thursday nights run so everything was set for a good run. I was the first to head up but didn’t mind being the Hair. Ended up with a PB which was a little surprising as I really struggled over the line and only really managed to shuffle the last 200 meters or so but luckily I had done enough for a 29:15 which was a good feeling. Then jogged the short way home for a change of scenery so ended up doing 9K all up which wasn’t too bad.

On my way to a PB

Wednesday
Did my 5K run from Tuesday in the afternoon as I was scared of the rain on Tuesday and elected not to venture out in it. Felt good to be out on Wednesday afternoon finished the 5K in a nice and tidy 34 minutes.

Thursday
I had 7K on the program and I wanted to take it easy as I have the 5K race on Saturday so I decided to run 8 min/k but I forgot when I got home that I had any training so sat down for dinner and then to watch TV finally remembered about 7pm that I was suppose to go for a run. So upstairs to get changed then out the door finally about 7:30 did 7K in 50 minutes so a little quicker than I wanted to but couldn’t really run it any slower felt really good out there the best I have in a long time. So hopefully it’s a good sign looking for a good time tomorrow hopefully I can pull something special out of the hat.

All over the place

Well this have been a little crazy of late and I have no idea where the time has gone. So not going to be posting a update cause I have no idea what I have missed. I lost Buddy Junior for about a week so there was a few rides and run’s that have not been logged but I am back on track this week.

23 weeks to go to my Half Marathon so the training resumed on Sunday morning very glad to report I was out the door in the morning and feeling good in the legs. Have decided to run my easy runs at the 7/min pace as opposed to my normal 8/min pace as I think it will help with my overall finishing time. So did 6K on Sunday and averaged just under the 7/min pace without any problems so all is looking good. Unfortunately I failed to get out of bed this morning so I have 5K on the program this afternoon.

Also going to be doing the CR 5K challenge this Saturday morning hoping to pull a PB out of somewhere, would really like to go under 28 minutes but who knows.

Life is Good.

Well not much running is going on but things are going good anyway. Had a very promising job interview this morning so hopefully things will work out there. Other than that the only training that has been happening is long rides 40K last Wednesday and then 40K this Tuesday morning. Both went well with no incidents or flat tyres which was a pleasant change also going again tomorrow morning so hopefully the luck continues. Also have my first run in ages this weekend as I slowly get into it ready to start my 23 week program leading up to the half marathon. Also have been looking into signing up for CanToo more on that later on in the week if I decide to do it.
