Hooray! I've finally stuck to the marathon training plan by reducing my nights of running and I'm now feeling loads better.
In fact, I'm a little ball of energy...
Had a great time at boot camp on Saturday morning. Ran 10.5 miles with Jo from running club on Sunday and managed to come in spot on my scheduled 1 hour 45 minute of easy running. I was back home for 11am, feeling positively virtuous with the day stretching ahead of me.
I'm not sure an enormous lunch at the Toby Carvery is included in the marathon training plan though...surely it's all about fuelling?
Nervously, trialled the Virgin Active Runners last night and was pleased to see so many familiar faces there. I thoroughly enjoyed the session which included a warm-up mile long jog along Kirkstall Road, and then interval running...er in the car park of Iceland. We did seven sets of two minute sprints with a two minute rest in between each one.
I know this type of training got me really fit for my first half marathon, so fingers crossed this will do the same. At one point, I did wonder what the heck my life has come to when I spend an hour on a Tuesday night, in the dark, running round lamposts in a supermarket car park.
I guess stranger things have happened...
