Disco Duck Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Holy crap the Balfron 10k is hilly. Undoubtedly the most difficult I've done. 51:55 is a PB though (I'm unfit and old, remember!) so quite pleased. 25 mins out, 27 back (uphill) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neefie Noodle Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Well didn't get to do the 2K Steeplechase this past Wed as they cancelled it. I have been feeling great running. Tuesday was a Fartlek session for 30 mins. Thursday was speed work. 650m efforts for the 800m athletes, 1300m for the 1500m athletes, 2200m for 3K/5K athletes. 3.8K for 10K+ atheletes. Ran the 2.3 miles to work in about 16mins and back (it's uphill and had a headwind) in under 18mins. Going out for a 10 mile tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave258 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I've not done a massive amount of running recently - a 6 mile and two 4 miles in the last 3 weeks or so. However, my old man has signed me up to run the Callander 10k tomorrow which I'm using as a reason not to get pished tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, my old man has signed me up to run the Callander 10k tomorrow which I'm using as a reason not to get pished tonight. That was the hilliest run I've ever done. For those not aware, callander is basically a long, flat settlement surrounded by hills. I was hoping it'd be ten k round the town rather than the hills. In any case, was very pleased with 51.50ish, although both ankle's and my left knee are now undoubtedly fucked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
