Hi Daz, weather lousy now, so give yourself time to recover .. we need to nail this down when getting into shape and when not to run unnecessarily hard
little steps

I felt great by the end of last week and ready to go on Sunday, must have picked this up of someone in family on Friday night.
Still no running yet. Head is clearer today so on the mend.
Darren.

take it easy, don't rush back and you shouldn't lose much
stay safe TheEd

Unfortunately whatever it is has made its way into my chest overnight. What started as a few sniffles has now escilated into flu and is thoroughly annoying me
RE: To race is but a dream... - TheEd - 12-02-2020
HI Daz .. plenty of water and allow for recovery. You should come back fine.

Because the last few weeks has been so erratic, i have tried to cobble a couple of sessions together over last few days to reignite some energy in the legs leading into the half on Sunday. I am a bit miffed, it took longer to recover from illness than anticipated then with being away for the week training just didn't go to plan despite my best intentions.
did a 5x2 session and scaled back the efforts in order to run some consistant pace as i knew speed probably wasnt there. Endurance definetly isnt.
Revised my target to 95 mins for race but after the long run, i am realigning expectations again unless the recovery trigger actually gets some energy into the legs.
Reconsidering entering the Marathon on 3rd May as i don't feel confident now at all either.
Any ideas how to close out this week are welcome. i have recovery tonight and club run tomorrow which will be some sort of tempo so I am thinking then just easy running for rest of week to Friday.

RE: To race is but a dream... - TheEd - 03-03-2020
Hi Daz, cut back on the runs during the week and then consider 3 x 5 minutes Wednesday at anticipated half marathon pace
when racing, start off more conservatively and see if you can build up the pace
