There's a bit of Spring in the air today, definitely getting to interesting times in people's marathon training plans. Hang in there!
I just had my last quality effort before this weekend's Southern road relay champs, and fitness appears to be coming back nicely since the achilles started settling down. Sutcliffe Park is a favourite venue for tempo running as it's flat and traffic-free, and 1.5 mile w/u from home is just about right. Set myself the target of a 4 mile progressive tempo run with splits of 5:50 / 5:40 / 5:30 / 5:20, and managed 5:50 / 5:40 / 5:29 / 5:16. 4 miles is pretty much the distance I need to run on Sunday so if I can do it close to the faster end I'll be pretty happy.
