Training Log Archive: Gillian

from Clack end of cycle path to Slack, along road to Forest Mill, back to Slack, along cycle path to a bit beyond the deep gorge, return same route.

legs really hurting after a while, were already tired / a bit sore from yesterday. a bit scared my legs would seize up. bit worried that I seem to be getting slower... one more week of hard training, then three of tapering.

bit of a west wind - noticeably quicker than expected up the cycle path hill, and equally noticeably slower than expected on the descent.

Also getting a bit worried about the first underpass on the Stirling route - how can this not cause a bottleneck for those taking longer than say 3 hours? I reckon you could have 4000 people trying to get through in an hour - 1000 in 15 minutes...

top road, Muckhart golf course road to end of it, turn round, come home. trying fairly hard.

tempo run, trying hard: crossroads to Dollar, loop round Strathdevon / Lover's loan, Tilli, back to crossroads
feeling OK, but legs still tired, esp quads.

start of warm down with Storm until met Wendy and Molly and it turned into a walk for me and a mad run around with Molly for Storm.

fairly easy, bit better than yesterday
