Spreadsheet updated! Good job everyone.

Chole-enjoy your recovery weeks!

Skoptic-I think a 20 mile run makes up and then some for two missed days. What pace did you run it at?

TMH reporting in for 2nd week

04/25: 8km run – untimed, off-road trails with dog.
04/26: Rest day – sick with migraine.
04/27: 2.5km run approx – 15min short, easy run.
04/28: 10.5km run – untimed, with backpack, work to home via off-road trails.
04/29: 3km run – untimed, squeezed-in run after long work day.
04/30: 5.23km run – untimed, work to home with backpack.
05/01: 8km run – untimed, easy with dog (tired/not feeling 100%).

Frustrating week given work commitments...

I'm tapering for a double marathon in 12 days and it's the last two weeks of school so running is being put on the back burner right now. Which is no big deal since I'm not going to get any stronger two weeks out. I'll be fully recovered for the thing at least

4/27 - 16.2k
4/28 - 13k
5/01 - 8k

8 min mile on the nose, so a 2hr 40 run. I'm training for double ironman .. so lots of LSD (not the psychedelic ... that makes me runs sideways). I was quite gutted because I ran out and back from a veggie / vegan cafe on the grand union canal. I spent a lot of the run thinking about their vegan chocolate fudge cake .. and then got back 5 mins after they closed!! Doh!!

(for extra 'macho' points I cycled 50 miles the day before and 80 the day after (today) - currently eating a lot and sitting a lot )

That stinks.

Oh, I've had some great vegan chocolate cake...I guess it just means 2 servings next time!

Damn right.. I like you're attitude

[Mr. Cleetus]

good thought. We're not currently, but we can easily do so.

My week continued to be not-so-great, but the challenge is helping me to get out when I might otherwise not.

I have a new challenge for you......I need a marathon. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr I didn't make it in the lottery. I get the feeling after reading my polite rejection email that it takes three years of rejection before you can count on a yes. Oh well, I'm going start looking again for a Oct/Nov marathon.

i think i did 4k the first week, then 4.5k this week, on a treadmill on Thursday

[skoptic]

Whoop whoop - hope everyone is doing well. I had a lovely rest day today, helping organise our local 10K (a rest day at the weekend is a rare gift at the moment)

Tue 7.5 miles
Wed 2 MIles
Thur 7.5 miles
Sat 13 miles

[Mr. Cleetus]
