Training Log: Becks

Running 43:00 4.4 mi (9:46 / mi)
ahr:172 max:190 shoes: 09 Saucony Grid

Progression run. Super tough as the first three zones were all steep uphill. Struggled to get to the highest heart rate when I hit the moor and had to run fast into the wind, but in the second half of the final zone I made it. Felt like a really good session, increasing the pace up the hill was tough. Gorgeous day, really warm. Spring is in the air!

Note
(rest day)

Actually a rest day today, spent the whole day throwing out all my stuff. I have thrown out four bags of clothes and still have too many to take with me. Oops. I also found all my diaries from when I was 14. They were awful.

Still shattered, and am spending the day trying to condense my 65000 word thesis into a 700 word letter to the Editor! Fun!

I just found my first grey hair. Damn you thesis writing!

Running 34:16 [2] 3.6 mi (9:31 / mi)

Changed my mind and persuaded Dad out for a run - didn't take much persuasion on either of our parts as we were both trying to avoid writing! Lovely jog around Goit Stock to the waterfall and a good natter, glad I got out.

(rest day)

Rest day doing the worst day's work I have ever done. I was supposed to stay the week, but I told them I wasn't coming back at 5. It was awful!
