Forgot to congratulate you on your brilliant Parkrunning last Saturday!
How much of a (non-JB) pb was that? Super running and placing!
btw what's the slight injury? Hope nothing much!0 -

yep you're right its not worth the risk! 10K's are 10 a penny so you'll have lots of choice, I'll be doing Clonee too (just 'taking part') and we're told its a flat left handed course, and there's always The Lakes 10K too... Don't worry I'll make sure to scoff nibble you're share of the cake. Get better soon!! 0 -

Thanks Ososlo, it was about 25 secs quicker than any previous non-JB attempt (apart from a couple of sub-21's where the course was short which don't count :rolleyes:. Injury is just some back pain caused by the pelvis being out of sync. Saw osteopath today and it's feeling a good bit better already. No running until completely pain free though

You are being very sensible ... not to mention a small effort towards Racing Anon
Straight back at ya on the sensible-ness, hope you're doing ok ? The Racing Anon. meetings my start sooner than expected (although I'm hoping for one last hurrah with an 800m if I can fit it in before B-day).yep you're right its not worth the risk! 10K's are 10 a penny so you'll have lots of choice, I'll be doing Clonee too (just 'taking part') and we're told its a flat left handed course, and there's always The Lakes 10K too...

Thanks FD, will be looking forward to updates from Saturday!0 -

B-day is Base day right?
Fingers crossed, you never know. Look at Dubgal's near miraculous recovery

Yup, B-day will mark the start of 9 weeks of base building to include 0 races, 0 sessions. Oh I'm a-twitching.0 -

BG your comments about promising to do core every day really resonates with me, have had the same lecture to myself recently!! I had been doing it well but somehow it became a chore and I did less and less. With the hip thing playing up it has to get back on track. So I've changed how I view it. Now I try to see it as relaxation time - no kids and play chill out music. Must admit I am enjoying it again (as much as you can enjoy planks!).
Pity you missed the 10k but maybe the base building is coming at a good time for you. Give that back a chance to settle and you'll be unstoppable when you get racing again 0 -

Yes, snap! I think we can get away without it for a little while but it always (ALWAYS!) comes back to bite ya eventually. Totally agree that I need to change my perception of it, and schedule some 'me' time for core and stretching. Sounds like you have it sussed
Looking forward to base building now, putting the final touches to the plan and will start on 30/6 (Should be 29/6 but there is a small matter of a 800m TT to get out of the way first
) 0 -

Haha you're a serious case, absolute race junkie!! My hunch is 'looking forward to' is a bit of a stretch :P0 -

Monday – Easy (test) run
Still a little sore and tight today but much improved, thankfully, and no longer lopsided which is always a bonus. Brought BG Jr. swimming in the afternoon and the movement (along with ALL the stretching I’ve been doing) must have done some good because I felt able for a test run. It was close to 8pm by the time I got out, kept it short and focussed on form and other than some loss of mobility around the hips all is well and I was happy to see the pace matching the easy effort (9:11, 9:12 mile splits) so the week off hasn’t done too much damage. Will try 30 mins tonight and see how it goes from there. No adverse effects this morning from the test run anyway. I also spent 15 mins this morning stretching. And another 5 polishing my halo.- 20:00 (2.2 miles)
So I’m back hopefully and will be ready to start the base building next week. My log will be a shrine of S&C* including but not limited to stretching, AIS, Myrtl, Core, Pilates, Body Balance, Drills and proprioception. But not James Dunne, unless anyone can convince me it’s really really really worth it.
*No choice, I made a deal with the running gods that if I got fixed I would never ever neglect my S&C again.0 -

Mother of sweet Jezus! Will you be doing Twister and line dancing as well
With all of that pulling & dragging are you sure you'll have any time to run!
What's the last one Propthingymebob, does it involve invasive surgery
Good luck with all that Jane Fonda!

Those running gods aren't easy to appease! Actually I'd do all of the above ten times over if I never had to line dance. How was that ever a thing :rolleyes: ? The propriowha' involves standing on one leg with eyes closed for increasing length of time, and when you get really good at it, you're able to multi-task while balanced on one leg, so with practice I'll probably have more time for running, not less 0 -
What's your take on James Dunne? I'm finding it difficult but manageable, just about.
I got as far as signing up and getting the emails but it just seems too daunting. That said, if you finish the 30 days and start doing 4 minute miles I will definitely reconsiderand what are you doing specifically for 'core' if you're also doing pilates? LOL at TBL's comment but he's right, I'd never have time to get out for a run and do all that :-) have been meaning to start myrtl too, must get my ass in gear and do that..
Just planks, bridges and the like at home. I can usually get 2 x 30 seconds done before BG Jr. hops on or starts building Lego around me.My thoughts on this, I think it's good to work through the 30 days and then pick and choose what you thought worked well and was benefical to you and add that into your ongoing supplementary training.
If you are just going through the 30 days with the intention of just forgetting about it I don't think it will do much good in the long term though.
So I actually have to DO the exercises, not just watch the videos.....:eek: ?0 -

I'll settle for 7-minute miles (five in a row) for now. 0 -
