Woah, woah I'm sick. I was waiting for the slow people to catch up so I could use them to hold me back.

You'll have to do a non-talking pace run to keep up with me next week.

Savage, I'll slow down a little to run with you. I like to have a head torch around.:p
How did this turn into a slagging match? I was only trying to encourage you.

None of this only doing 4 reps on Saturday. Prove your worth and do a full session or I'll be back here telling everyone you're all talk and a big wus. 0 -

Ladies, ladies take it outside or take it to another log........
Nothing like a bit of healthy competition in Donore!!! Glad to hear you are both back in business.0 -

I'll bookmark you too..... oh no wait, you don't keep a log! 0 -
Anyway, Donore competitiveness aside, back to logging MY runs
Thursday 22 Nov
Was late for club session last night despite OH's best efforts to get home in time. Got the meeting point wrong too or else just missed my group heading off on their tempo run. Anyway saw a group of the novice club members & our amazing coach doing hill repeats at the bottom of my road, so hopped out of the car and joined them. Had to do my own set of reps, where I obviously didn't have to work as hard as I would in a group. Felt a tad guilty on the run back to the club meeting point, so I tagged on a 3 mile loop on the way home. It was the little man's birthday so was able to eat a feed of pizza, garlic bread and cream cakes relatively guilt free!
Friday 23 Nov
Did I say guilt free?....;)
Rolled out of bed at 6.30 this morning. 5 miles, pace of 7.58
That's better.0 -

Was late to the club session which was a tempo run one. Finally cought up to the group that I wanted to run with (took me a whole mile!) We ran from Knocklyon, OldBawn, Tallaght and back to Knocklyon again - 6.5 miles total. Didn't have a chance to fire up the garmin but pace I'm guessing was in and around 7:30 pace. Can't say I wasn't tired in places, but I hung on in there and finished strong.
Friday 30th Nov
Was meant to get up early and do some sort of recovery run. That didn't happen, so ended up doing 4 quickish miles before work. pace 7:58. Recovery run definitely tomorrow. :cool:
Then club Christmas party tomorrow night!!! 0 -

Nope. Still in non-racing mode. I kinda want to wait til I feel I can give a 5k a good shot. I'm not there yet. Might amble up to Malahide some Saturday and give that a go. This not racing thing is good!
Might do a few miles in the park in the morning early if you fancy slowing down to my pace of running 0 -
