    Did this weeks LSR this evening as may not be able to do it at weekend. 12.1 miles in 1.37.30. Avg pace was 8.03 and felt strong at finish. Warm out there but nice to run unde blue skies.

    Hi Sideline warrior, do you think that your LSR pace is bit to fast for your sub3.30 training plan? your average pace of 8.03 is very close to your marathon pace IMO, a LSR pace is meant to be a lot slower than MP isn't it? Somewhere between 30 to 90 secs slower as LSR's are all about building up your endurance?
    Someone jump in here and correct me if i'm wrong!:o

    Mr.W.

    You are probably right but my problem is that I do the LSR with a couple of others and we tend to push each other along. If I ran it on my own I'd probably slow it down a bit. However saying all that is it doing me any harm if I am doing the LSR at hoped for marathon pace with still 3 months to go? Surely it will stand to me in the long run. I do a midweek 6 miler at under 7.30 pace.

    It's not recommended as it will have an impact on your other training. Running a long run at marathon pace will take it's toll and over time you're going to get more tired. So for example, if you're doing a 6 mile tempo run midweek, it's likely that this will suffer in terms of quality. It might not be as fast as it should be, you could be falling off the pace at the end, or you could just pick up an injury (it happens when you're nackered!)

    The other side of this is that there's no benefit at all of doing all your runs at race pace. It's fine every now and then (the likes of P&D do it once a month, and in a very structured way) but not every week. The reason you do long runs is to build up glycogen and going faster does nothing for this.

    Thanks for the advice. To be honest, my legs have felt dead the past few days so went out this evening and did a gentle 5 miler at 8.50 pace. Felt like I was hardly moving but am going to try and slow myself down for the next while and get some life back in the legs.

    Strange LSR today. Was in doubt because of pain in upper thigh. Ditched yesterdays 6mile run because of it but really didnt want to miss LSR so gambled on it. Injury wasn't too bad on run but developed migraine about 1 mile in which wasn't pleasant but managed to get through it and felt good running wise at end despite a thumping headache. Two solpadeine and a couple of hours in dark room in bed, feelin a bit better now.
    12.09 miles..1:57mins...avg pace 9.41...HR 132/154

    Looking at the splits ..happy with even pacing.

    Was a bit unsure about LSR this morning as I had a slight hangover but it turned out to be a good run. Managed to keep it to average 9.45min per mile so getting used to maintaining slow pace.

    Mr.Wiggle|RunRepublic sub3.30|2|6|69km|109km| Fitting in runs before night shift is proving challenging.

    Managed the 11 mile LSR this evening. Parked in work, headed off into the sunset, absolutely lovely conditions for run. Lovely sunny sky,warm, slight breeze...smashing!!
    Only problem was the run had to end with me clocking in !! Ah well, can't have everything perfect I suppose ??!!

    Hi,

    I'm joining late! I just started training last week. I'm easing into it.

    This will be my fourth marathon. I havent done any running in over a year since a brush with cancer, I'm 2.5 stone heavier now than I was but I am sure I will lose it quick. My pb is 4hrs6mins in Dublin, hoping to crack four hours this year!

    I will start to add in my mileage at the end of the week. Fingers crossed for a injury free journey to the Dublin Marathon!

    :D

    Hi Sideline W, Where are you going in France ? Every coastal town I've been to has some sort of a promenade. Have had some memorable runs along the promenade in Nice out as far as the airport. Had to get up early mind you, 6.30ish, before it got too hot. If you are inland keep an eye out for canal/riverside paths. Daytime/evening normally too hot. Only other option is midnight, all you have to worry about then are the mozys and the bats! enjoy the holiers. SR. :D

    Off to a little place called Sainte Marie La Mer outside Perpignan. Lots of running routes but it's the heat I am worried about. Early runs are ideal but the only problem is the late beers:) which also rules out midnight runs. And before anyone suggests not to drink, I will be on hols not a religious pilgrimage.
