Did a nice long 11.3 miles midweek run before dinner in a total of 103 minutes. This did include a 1.44 mile Time Trial about 2/3 away round in a total time of 10:31.
Then after a couple of easy miles we stopped for some chocolate cake that somebody had made. I was glad of this as I had ran out of isotonic drink and I had no gels with me so I had two pieces!!
I did leave a few minutes before continuing with the last couple of miles, I think I should have eased in to the run more but I made it all the way round ok.
This was a good endurance run with a faster section in the middle. It also allowed me to try some food so my stomach was in a non optimal state when running the last few miles, this could be useful practice for the ironman based on past races.
This blog will have my thoughts about training for running races and triathlons. It will also contain items about weight loss (nutrition) and general fitness.
In 2007 I completed my first Ironman triathlon at Ironman UK and therefore I am now an Ironman.
In 2009 I took part and completed my first Ultra Marathon a 39.3 Miles (63.2 Km) run.
In 2010 I completed two Ironman distance triathlons with just 1 month between them.
