Getting exited!
Just 3 weeks to the taper now and 6 weeks to the the race. I am managing my highest ever consistent mileage and am feeling strong again after my easier week. I might even be in something close to the shape I was 4 years ago, which would be really quite something. Next Sunday's half-marathon sharpener in Milton Keynes should be a good indicator of where I am.
- Good Tuesday session with 3Miles at 6:00 pace, 2Miles at 5:52-pace and 1Mile at 5:49 pace
- Very encouraging 20.7-miler in windy conditions at 6:59-pace with an average HR of only 135
- Very encouraging 11.2 miles marathon-effort in good conditions (av HR = 148) > 6:23 pace.
- 5 runs of over 20 miles now completed (2 to go before taper)
- 66 mile week (highest ever) - target peak before taper = 70
- 6-week rolling weekly-average mileage = 59 (highest ever) - target peak before taper = 62
- Last 4 weeks; 59, 64, 56, 66
