Thanks! Good to see you getting back to it. XC should sort you out.
Ugh! 3:00:17 today as 3hr pacer for the Richmond Marathon... was a minute inside 3hr pace till 3 miles to go, by which time what was a fairly healthy sub-3 train of up to 10-12 for most of the first half had whittled down to me, MsPub edging ahead and one guy falling off the back. The next mile for me was comically slow as we intertwined with slower half marathon runners in both directions along narrow tow path, and the wheels started coming off as low mileage for the past three months and twisting my ankle last week conspired to make the going very tough. MsPub forged on and ran 2:57 to win the women's race; I decided my pacing job had been as useful as it would get and just trudged in over the line.
I've got some miles to put in to be race-ready for VMLM next year but the mojo's there.
Good elevation chart. Looks like a solid training run.
I've managed to get a few weeks training under my belt, coupled with some cycle commuting and am beginning to feel the benefit. Run the same time at Dulwich parkrun two weeks in a row, this week wasmore comfortable and I tagged on 2 miles at tempo pace. Not long until the cross country season.
Am also considering the endurancelife Dorset half marathon, not ready for a marathon or more yet.
Good luck pacing tomorrow @PhilPub
