22/10/12 - Rest Day 23/10/12 - Rest Day 24/10/12 - Rest Day 25/10/12 - Rest Day 26/10/12 - Free Run I'm a day behind on the recovery run, after the weekend half marathon. I had sore hip flexes which I think are down to my lacking core stability, so the aim of this session was just to get out, do a quick run and get home. It was chilly too, so winter running is definitely here! This is the 2nd time I've been out in the dark in Lamphey and I happy to say it wasnt as scary as the first time and my mind didnt play to many tricks on me. A few russels on leaves did make me up my pace but apart from that all good. I'm sure there may have been a few heart rate spikes as I jumped a few times but I couldn't find my HR monitor so I can just I was man enough not to be scared! This above photo looks like I was out in extreme cold condition.. well I was.. at least 8'c or am I robbing a bank... I'm not quite sure. Session Details Duration 00 33.53 Dista...

As I had Monday as my rest day I needed to get out and get a run in before the weekend. As Friday is normally my rest day it felt quite funny getting out there and I think my legs knew this. I wanted to keep it simple and just get a light run in. I decided to go for 6 miles and the normal route. From the times above I definately took it easier than normal, as I was clocking in over 8 minute miles, which is fine as I had a hard session Thursday and this was meant to be a gentle session. I averaged a heart rate only at 152 BPM but this is still well in my training zone, the session was all about getting my legs getting used to going out, when they are still tired. This was my last run in the UK for a week as im off on holiday on Sunday, I wonder how hard its going to be running 20'c heat.. no underarmour for me!
