Saturday 29th August timekeeper @ cabinteely parkrun - clearly this weeks RD missed the part of my log where I can't operate a watch properly
managed not to mess this up thankfully 
weather played ball too. Followed by:
6 miles @ 10.03 including 3.1 miles of rathfarnham 5k route. Some sections of the route are very fast but there is one small hill and a long enough drag. Its also very exposed with the sun beating right down on top of me today it was roasting hot with very little shelter. Will give it a shot anyway Got back to the car and the heavens opened so delighted to have missed the biblical downpour! Legs/hip/foot feeling ok still. 0 -

Oh timekeeper is too much responsibility for me. I stopped just short of breaking the scanner this morning

It's fast in that it's net downhill, but not quite Jingle Bells fast. Great that you're pain free, bring on next Saturday 0 -

Between soggy barcodes (ew!), tokens not scanning and the lengthy queues I thought the scanner would die of exhaustion :rolleyes:. I got my run done in the sunshine earlier too, happy days. 0 -

I can vouch for that, although not always visible
Don't think cheerleader is an official volunteer role though.0 -

I hope Anna is not one of your refereesI can vouch for that, although not always visible

its in addition to whatever other role you're carrying out, we take cheer leading very seriously on the ss its what gets people up the hill 3 times!!!!!! 0 -
Sunday 30th August Semi Final day :pac:
not to be outdone by the lads I planned a rundate with annapr who had her 18 miler today, I had a measly 8 to do. Met in the PP and she had a surprise with her in the form of aquinn who was also out for her run. No flowers, or chocolates or anyone undressing (!) just straight down to the job of running, there may have been some conversation thrown in just to break the silences spotted lots of running groups out in the park this morning, we really are getting close to marathon day! Aquinn left us after 2.5 miles and we continued on through the park via the s bends into the fury glen and back through the trails at farmleigh.
in the end I did 11 miles @ 10.40 avg hr 150 so a little over the 8 in my plan but its 6 days to the race so I can take it easy for the rest of the week now. Anna I hope you walked when you hit 18 miles! I stopped the watch at the ashtown gate & walked to the car as didn't want to completely overdo it. Very enjoyable couple of hours, thank you for the company ladies
looking forward to an afternoon on the couch to watch the match UP THE DUBS!!!!
edit to say we passed Sonia O'Sullivan on the way through the S-bends, she looked in very good shape although she was sweating - like a normal person :rolleyes:0 -

I wasn't going to mention that she was sweating, but I was impressed by that! and to say we passed her... to be clear, she was going the opposite direction
Thanks for the company, very enjoyable run!0 -

Good man tang, I was beginning to think I had been imagining things :P. I'd say the ref was not with one side or the other, he was just plain woeful all round.
oh yeah, It seems you may have been doing just that in fairness I said exactly that for the Tyrone match, ref was unfair to you on numerous occasions - see, we can be supportive of other teams!!! 0 -

OR.....You could consider that it's your second highest mileage month of the year, remember the recent sessions that you nailed and embrace the fact that you are running pain free ? PMA, isn't that what we were telling the novices last week ? You'll have a good race, I have a sixth sense about these things 0

Tuesday 1st September Does anyone else get that 'have I forgotten to do my homework' :eek: feeling, even though its about 100 years since I left school
Slept like the dead last night after some more tree trimming/garden clearing yesterday eve so feeling much more human today.
5.2 miles @ 11:12 avg hr 134 kept this veery slow & easy, concentrated on form, running tall and engaging core, and breathing, found a nice slow comfortable pace early on and worked at keeping the effort level the same. All ok, slight niggle still in my right IT band, I think this is from me working on my form and therefore changing it slightly so using different muscles. Will monitor that..0 -

Thursday 3rd Sept 4.1 miles @ 10:37 followed by 3 x 100m strides. legs feeling a bit tired today (along with the rest of me!) but the strides felt fantastic wanted to do a load more so hopefully will feel the same on Saturday morning!
you taking tomorrow off as a rest day? you will be flying on Saturday 0 -

myself and ms. quinn are planning cheerleading duties, but starting to realise that we should have picked a race closer to civilisation.... we might have to bring coffee and cake with us...0 -

Bring a snack for while you're watching, then slip quietly round the finish and no-one will notice you having one of the famous cakes 0 -
