Note
(sick)

Think that's a record mileage week, done feeling a bit ill and back in Edinburgh's freezing cold. Need to be a bit careful

1 PM

Running (out of date) 1:28:46 [3] 19.6 km (4:32 / km) +270m 4:14 / km
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Long around the meadows and seat with Fred, feeling progressively fresher until about 15k on the hike back up the hill from KF which was a bit of a killer

Very aware I've overcooked the mileage for this week, which is nice given the lack of motivation, but defo an injury risk. Will take advantage of the plane journey and then presumed travel tiredness in South Africa next week to rest up a little bit

2 PM

Running (out of date) warm up/down 4:55 [1] 0.9 km (5:28 / km)
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Freddie was very keen to get a bit more mileage than me by coming back past my house. So chucked in some drills and strides to try get back ahead ;)

Petty? nah.

Running (out of date) 1:18:33 [3] 16.6 km (4:44 / km) +220m 4:26 / km
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Nice Mortonhall with Freddie and Eddie. Cold and icy, but good to be back and so much easier to get miles done with some company.

Running (out of date) 43:58 [3] 9.7 km (4:32 / km) +90m 4:20 / km
(sick) shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Down to run and become to look at road racers, but the people worked out pretty quick I wasn't gonna buy anything, so got minimal help on that :(

Then planned Deans-WoL-Saughton-canal to get home, but the walkway is closed, was starting to get achilles pain, and in a bit of a rush to get home, so bailed back via meadows.

Feeling a bit more up for it today, but still coldy

4 PM

Running (out of date) 44:12 [4] 8.6 km (5:08 / km) +50m 5:00 / km
(sick) shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Down to meadows, grim conditions again.
16*(30s[30s])

Not especially fun and not sure how useful tbh, but lacking the motivation needed for longer solo reps.

Cold is appearingtoo...

4 PM

Running (out of date) 1:03:25 [3] 13.2 km (4:48 / km) +90m 4:39 / km
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Planned a double lap of the seat, but got 20 metres up the road from the pond and decided it was too icy and dark, so bailed to killing fields for some steady laps. Pretty slow stuff, couldn't see where I was going and never really planned to push the pace.

Glad to have got this done but was more of a grind than it should've been. Need to start getting out in the light. Quads inexplicably tight :(

Tuesday Dec 12, 2017 #

Running (out of date) 24:00 [3] 5.0 km (4:48 / km) +30m 4:40 / km
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Went down to do a very ambitious solo session on the meadows (4 x 10min tempo, with 3.30min recovery). Felt okayish, but not super excited about it. Finished warmup, started first rep, garmin died.

Never mind, I'll just do it without times... nope
Trudged home unmotivatedly, not happy.

Running (out of date) 1:15:00 [3] 15.3 km (4:54 / km) +90m 4:46 / km
shoes: Asics GT-1000 5 (heavies)

Canal with Eddie and Tom, nice to be back in the burgh, bit dark though and seriously cold (but not as cold as I was expecting, so overheated)

bit of a pain to get mileage from mapmyrun, but gotta get it done for the fans ;)
