Training Log Archive: Old Daniel

Rodway and Pomfrey 5 x 4 mins (800m ish) -a pretty poor effort but got better as session went on. Efforts and potter pace quite similar! but you have to start somewhere. Chest quite tight and oxygen uptake no better . (Felt a bit rough in the evening and coughing)

Met up with Mark and Alce at British Camp and ran north on top of the ridge to Worcester Beacon and then back on the lower path. Really nice to meet and catch up. Quite a lot of climb and Mark much stronger on hills. Feeling quite good and great views. Just a pleasure to run in company of good friends. A good to be alive trip

Ran with Chris from Cross, round east side and then onto Wavering Down. Crooks Peak over the M5 near the Webbington, Loxton onto Blaedon Hill along ridge, down into the village and then back along the botoom mostly along rein. Stayed in touch with Chris until he pushed along the road on the ridge. Seemed like a long way back. It was surprisingly warm and I was a bit dehydrated at the end. Could not have run any further. Good to explore some new routes although the Wavering/ Crooks route remains a favourite

C • That was a long run! 3

Some technical training in the Welsh rain, not very disciplined, seem to have forgotten what to do

Tinsel Trot, still pretty good running conditions. Start was a bit of a struggle as felt pretty heavy legged but then ran quite well and a good time time to the Trig 68.27. A bit slower on the way back but still pretty pleased with the time. Just need to get back into the groove this week

Needed to regroup a bit after an unusual week. So went a ran Portbury loop and tried quite hard. Did loose a bit of time with the summer vegetation but also a bit slower than recently. Still quite pleased and did enjoy being outside
