The 11 miles on Saturday was the long run from week 5 that I could not do then, due to the snow.
Sunday I did 5 miles with the 3 miles in the middle at a fast pace. Was amazed to manage this with an average pace of 9:24. (considering the previous days run). Legs felt surprisingly fine until after dinner when they just turned to jelly. I blame the yummy Turkey Pesto Lasagna and even yummier Mars Bar Apple Crumble that I made for dinner!
This morning I dropped madam with her Godmother (left them making Pasta) and ceased the opportunity to start week 7 training plan. Was a choice between a 6 mile or 3 mile run and am glad I decided on the smaller distance for two reasons 1)on the route I decided to take the paths were treacherous-still 2)the legs had had enough.
Tomorrow will be a rest day!
They sound very calorie laden. I’m realllly struggling to eat properly as I’m just so disorganised at the moment…must get on and do a sainsburys shop…
well done! my marathon training plan has hit a huge hiccup, I just can not seem to get back on track 😦
really need to get focused again.. reading your and Carla’s blogs is giving me the incentive to get going again ,,
