Hey TheEd,
Thanks for Dave's Forum link - have had a quick general read around, was refreshing to hear someone doing well, inspiring!
His pace rates look interesting and something to emulate. I remember the +1 min/km slower than current 10km race pace. This was on mind my mind yesterday during the 5km, what's more interesting is this 5km course has got some decent little climbs in it, so was pleased with effort/pace and semi-proving I'm at 40 min 10km pace right now in effect?
Will keep an eye on Dave's thread in future. Thanks for putting me onto it.
On a different note, had some troubles getting off to sleep last night (3am :noway
. Had loads of chores to do last night after got in from Surfing and didnt sit down to unwind from the day properley.
Nevermind, feel OK'ish this morn, early one tonight. I've actually ordered one of those motivational books - "The Power of Full Engagement: Managing Energy, Not Time, Is the Key to High Performance and Personal Renewal". It was the Managing Energy bit I was after, were thinking of tatoo'ing this part to the inside of my eyelids! These books are sometimes crummie, but thought it might help make me do something about it!
Recovery today - legs are a little sore, nothing specific. Might pop in for another surf at 6pm this evening for an hour no more. Will see how go thru day. Will update later. May be get out tomorrow for an Easy 4miler?
Btw, looking like the Surf Holiday is going to be cancelled with all the Iceland Volcano, a real shame, will have to be another time. If so, looks like I could get a clearer run up to that 10Km I had booked for a week this Sunday. I did a 41:30 there last year which was a PB from year b4. I might be able to do it justice if I keep my head together over the next few days! :yes:
Cheers,
D
