Week Total (24/11/08 - 30/11/08) - 4 sessions
26.10miles - 3:14:42 - 7:28min/mile - 160bpm
My lower left leg has been giving me trouble since my stumble last week but I don't think it's too serious and hopefully time will make it better.
Today I went for a lunchtime run, a bit later than usual so I cut it short. It ended up as 5.2 miles in 39:27 @7:35 min/mile @144bpm. My legs felt sluggish and heavy and I was a bit concerned about my leg so I took the second half slower than the first 7:45 vs 7:25. That's me being sensible!!
I wasn't too happy with missing my Saturday and Sunday runs so when I got the opportunity to get in a few extra miles tonight I jumped at it. I needed to drop in some forms to my kids future school (3 miles away) so that meant a 6miles out-'n-back opportunity.
The temperature has dropped again (<2degc)>10bpm higher than lunchtime. I wonder why? Assuming that my fitness hasn't deteriorated since lunchtime all I can presume is that it was the hilly route vs the flat lunchtime that I ran at lunchtime. Interesting though, a significant difference....

The heart rate is definitely different during the day. If I run in the evening it is always a good bit lower than early morning.
We saw the Moon/Venus/Jupiter constellation with the kids last night. They were thrilled to see The Planets. It's great to see how they can get so excited about things.
A 3:14 Marathon last week isn't bad at all.
Next time I need a delivery I'll give you a call. You're what, about 10 miles away, so you should get a pretty good workout.
Grellan - I must be slow but I hadn't spotted the marathon distance!!
No problem about the delivery but you'll have to drive me home!! 20miles in one day - what do you think I run marathons!!
