I was at the boosh thursday night myself, thought it was great craic, good to see new(ish) material. Good running man, looks like you're getting well set up.

SUNGOD · 25-09-2008 7:30pm

hi showry the boosch were class, just a completely different kind of night out.

hi sobriquet, they were good crack. bob fossil cracks me up!!

did 5k on treadmill, 45 min of weights, 10k run outside, 10k on exercise bike.i know it sounds all over the place but it was first session since last saturday due to life stuff getting in the way so i was just mad to get stuck into something

SUNGOD · 26-09-2008 6:15pm

did an hour in gym weights and cardio really only messing about just didnt have the concentration for it.
looking back over my log i have only done one 20 mile run which is ridiculous especially as my goal was to break 3 hours. but nothing i can do now only train hard till the taper so planning on 16 tommorrow and all going to plan a 20 on sunday

SUNGOD · 27-09-2008 12:39pm

well i did the 16 reasonably ok this morning so if i can get through the 20 tommorrow i will be happy enough

You ran 16 miles today and your doing a 20 miler tomorrow?

Are you following any specific training plan? Im no expert (only started running recently) but that seems crazy to me.

SUNGOD · 27-09-2008 9:51pm

hi babybing,
it may seem a bit extreme and its not something i have just jumped into . i know my body at this stage and as ive missed a bit of training im trying to step it up at the moment. its not as extreme as you might think as for my first marathon i followed the hal higdon programme which had a 10 miler the day before the three 20 mile runs on that paticular programme.
also i have done 2 back to back 16 mile runs without any problems in the last couple of months, and as my long term goal is the ultra in connemara i think its good practise for the double long runs that will make up that training plan.
i know it might sound cracked but hey remember i didnt do it yet so log on tommorrow to see if i make it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SUNGOD · 28-09-2008 1:17pm

i made it
yeah did the 20 earlier felt quite good the whole way round and finished fairly strong. just great to get another 20 in as i was getting very short on time before the taper

SUNGOD · 29-09-2008 1:11pm

a slow 7 miles this morning still a little stiff after yesterday

SUNGOD · 03-10-2008 5:16pm

rested on tuesday and went to gym wednesday and thursday for a mixture of weights and some treadmill and bike.
didnt do a great amount and will probabily rest today as im planning 2 runs over the weekend

SUNGOD · 04-10-2008 5:26pm

really good session earlier 20 mile run , 30 min on bike , and 40 minutes of weights topped off with sauna/jacuzzi etc and i feel tired but absolutely great.
planning another longish run in the morning not too sure off the distance i will probabily see how i feel when i start

SUNGOD · 07-10-2008 9:01pm

6 mile run in 39 minutes, first 2 mile was steady enough but covered the last 4 about 6 minute/mile pace.
finished with 30 min on bike and about 10 minutes of weights

SUNGOD · 08-10-2008 7:33pm

9.5 miles in 67 minutes

ike · 08-10-2008 7:40pm

Good running to date SUNGOD, you have to be confident of a good showing in Dublin

SUNGOD · 09-10-2008 12:59pm

hi ike yeah fingers crossed it will go according to plan, firstly i want to beat my PB of 3:06 and secondly get as close to if not just under the magical 3 hours.
your going great yourself and judging by how many boardsies are running dublin there might be a bit of crack afterwards

SUNGOD · 09-10-2008 10:44pm

6 mile in 40 minutes , 18 min on bike and 45 minutes of weights and stretching

SUNGOD · 11-10-2008 2:17pm

thats some sessions your putting in.
How about giving the bike and the weights a miss for the next couple of weeks? Don't let anything get in your way, 3 hours doesn't come easy

SUNGOD · 12-10-2008 1:55pm

hi stipes212 yeah this weekend is my hardest one of my training and im tapering down over the next 2 weeks so should be fresh come race day

22 mile run early this morning, i dont seem to have a problem with back to back long runs

SUNGOD · 17-10-2008 9:55pm

tuesday 14th 6 mile run

thursday 16th 9 mile in 62 min so just under 7 min miles

SUNGOD · 19-10-2008 4:55pm
