Ok I have a stepback week in week 10 I could do a parkrun then without messing with the plan too much. I think/hope I've moved on from the not running tbh , I enjoy it too much.

Jingle Bells sound interesting, do I get to war a santa hat?

totally!!!
sounds like you have yourself a target race!

Good question. I've only ever heard of them in St. Anne's and even then I don't think it's necessarily every week and I'm not sure what times they have covered.
Killerz is the man to ask there. I'm fairly sure he's the Race Director.

You could ask in the Parkrun thread if you don't get anyone popping in here with an answer. Firedance or Bungy Girl might know.

They do have pacers in St.Anne's on occasion but not every week and the times paced would be dependent on the volunteers. I do know of one super enthusiastic pacer-in-training so I'll send her in here

Jingle Bells is a brilliant race, possibly the fastest 5K around, with a lovely atmosphere. Definitely a good target race.

Thanks , Fastest course I assume, hoping most of it is down Chesterfield avenue from the Castleknock gate and not the other way around?

assuming you are a "super enthusiastic pacer in training" I was just enquiring if any of the parkruns used pacers for those of us unable to judge our pace for ourselves?

Jingle Bells is my goal race too. Not sure what date it's on yet but last year it was 6th December. Hopefully we'll both be clapping ourselves on the back afterwards before quickly deciding that we want to go faster.

Sounds like plan , I hope you'll wait for me on the finish line if you make that 22 minute 5k.

Ah I think I'm being way too ambitious with that, but I have to have a target, so why not make it a ridiculous one? I'd say you're ahead of me, you're doing good work here.

The Muppet

Today the plan called for 50 minutes easy. It was nippy enough in my short sleeve running top so I ran it on the quick side of easy. I forgot to turn on the auto lap on my watch so I don't have any split times but I kept pace pretty constant I think.

That's week 6 of the plan completed, week 7 starts tomorrow with another 50 minutes easy and Monday is 60 second hill sprints :eek: think I'll have to find a new hill , stay tuned for that one it could be interesting.

If only I had a grasp on metric I'd have a better idea on making a comparison. Your 5k time is a little better than mine , your doing good work yourself.

I haven't really given any thought to having a target up to now except to beat my own times. TBH I never expected to be where I am at now . I used to follow logs here like Vitani's and Ossoslo's and Pacing Mules all graduates of the couch to 5k and be in awe of the progress they had made but never though I could make the type of progression had. I still have a way to go but I now believe I have the ability to run quicker than I have to date.

Have you figured out whether you're running or jogging yet?:o

Maximus Alexander

I'm a sucker for metric, I know I really should switch to miles because it seems to be the done thing around here, but I've never used miles for anything in my life so it just feel wrong to me. I wouldn't say my 5k time is faster than yours - I don't actually have one! - you have a confirmed 26:xx, but mine is only speculative. And I reckon you could knock a bit off that already.

I know what you mean about seeing other people's progress, I find it hard to believe that I'll ever get much better than I am now, which is why I started the log. I bet if I had logged right from the start I'd be feeling better about the progress I've made.

I'll call it running once I've actually done a race I think - I haven't earned it yet.

The Muppet

The way I see it is if I'm not walking I'm running.

Don't underestimate the difference running in a race will make over your training times . My fastest mile in traininf was 8.40. In the race I did the 7.22 .
I'm looking foward to jingle bells now roll on December.

The Muppet

Up and out early for my 50 minutes easy this morning. Its a nice cool morning , ideal running weather. I took the same route as last sunday through the local ward river (jacko) park, as I ran I was thinking about the escapades I used to have there as a child.

The first 2.5 miles are reasonable up hill and then its.5 of a mile flat to airside and another two miles down hill to home. Its a nice route.

I took it nice and easy today, my legs felt a little tired and heavy so I had little option other than to do that. I still have not turned on the auto lap on my watch so no splits again .

I'm a little apprehensive about Mondays hill sprints, I tend to run these as fast as I can, that last session were 8 x 30 seconds hills, that was 3 weeks ago and I hadn't much left on the last one . 6 x 60 tomorrow is going to be challenging I think . My usual hill is too short for these but I have another one in mind I think it's a little steeper than mu usual one but it is long enough to get the 60 seconds on.

The Muppet

Well I was right about finding the 60 second hill sprints challenging tonight.

I did a nice easy 12 minute warm up at 10.49 minute mile pace which got me to my hill. The hill rises gradually for about 20 meters and then gets steeper and the flattens out a little near the end.


For the first repeat I kept an eye on my watch to see when my 60 seconds were up, for the rest of repeats I just ran to where my first repeat ended.

This was the toughest session I have done to date. After each repeat I was out of breath and the legs were going nearing the end of each , I walked back between repeats but was fully recovered to do my next one when I got to the bottom.

I had a bit of an issue on repeat 4 and 6 with my watch, I was sure I hit the lap button but the lap didn't start but there wouldn't be much difference to the time or pace to the others .

I did a mile cool down then and I felt really good during that.

warm up

1.08 miles in 11:43 @ 10:49 pace
repeat 1 0.17 miles in 60 seconds @5.58 pace
repeat 2 0.16 in 60 seconds @ 6.10 pace
repeat 3 .015 in 62 seconds @ 6.43 pace
repeat 4 lap did not start on watch (fastest pace 6.14)
repeat 5 0.16 in 59 seconds @ 6:12 pace
repeat 6 lap did not start (fastest pace 5.39)

Cool down .90 @11.38 pace

I did feel my last repeat was my quickest repeat,

I'm delighted to have completed this as I knew I was going to find it tough going.

100 minutes easy tonight @10.40 pace .

Legs felt quite tired tonight though I finished strong (for me) the last few miles were under 10 minute pace . There was a good wind at my back from clontarf to kilbarrick road , Glad I wasnt running into it.

I'm noticing an improvement in my stamina . I.'m quite comfortable running and maintaining my pace on tired legs before I would struggle when tired and more than likely have to slow down or stop.


Rest day tomorrow \○/

Friday is tempo session day on the plan. Todays session was 66 minutes with 22 minutes at tempo which is 9:12 for me.

Headed down to the cycle track on the howth road for this, it's a nice surface to on and there's always a breeze in off the sea and its a couple of miles long.

Nice run and I am happy with the pace. its on the fast side of my easy. My legs felt a little tired today , I don't know if that was just the weeks running taking its toll or the result of my poor diet yesterday (snack box for dinner on the move) and poor sleep last night .

That's week 7 of the plan completed, the weeks are flying in. 6 runs and 34 miles in total this week.

on the cool down from yesterdays run I felt a little soreness in the top and front of my right leg (quad?) , It was minor and I didn't pay much heed to it but near the end of todays run I felt it again, again it was minor but something I have not felt before so Its something I may have to watch. I ve been very luck with injuries since I started to run, ive had nothing more than a few run of the mill niggles, achilles stiffness that heel drops put right and sore knees that up to no have sorted themselves out with a little rest.

I'm half way through the plan now and I'm feeling quite good on my runs. Week 8 starts tomorrow with another 50 minutes easy.

The Muppet

Very easy 50 minutes this morning in Newbridge park. It really is a beautiful location to run in with tarmac paths to run on. This morning I saw squirrels rabbits and deer as well as the farm animals . It was lovely.

I decided I was going to take it really easy this morning as I have been running on the fast side of easy lately and with a little niggle in my quad I want to try let it recover . I did feel the quad again it's a little sore nearing the end of runs .

Today was hill sprint session day , and easy one, 9 short 6-8 seconds with recovery with 1 mile warm up and cool down.

No niggles today but it was only a short session . I jogged back for recovery on the hills, i usually have to walk back. I felt really good and contemplated heading off a few easy miles after the session but decided to stick to the plan and head home.

Now it's back to the Dublin City Marathon page to track the novices, They are playing a blinder in what Id imagine must be tough conditions considering how windy it is out there today.

The Muppet

The plan today was for a 50 minute easy run.. I'm busy this evening so decided to squeeze this in at lunchtime.

I set off on one of my usual 50 minute routes in the rain. I love running in the rain I think it's because it keeps me cool.

I felt really good from the off . I knew I was going faster than easy pace but I decided to just run the route and forget the watch for today.

So my 50 minute run turned into a 44:46 one and I really enjoyed every second of it

Tempo session today, I was a little stuck for time and I was not really in the right frame of mind to do this today but it had to be done. I ended up doing the run up and down the n32 which is from just past the airport exit of the m50 to the malahide road. It's a flat 2 mile concrete footpath which is never busy the air pollution from the busy road is part of the package.

The run went quite well, I got into a nice rhythm on each tempo part and I felt comfortable enough at the pace.

Again I had a watch malfunction, I forgot to start the lap on the first repeat doh , and the forgot to stop the lap after the second repeat, I got my head in gear then ad manage to properly record split 3 4 and 5 , the pace for 1 and 2 would be the same as the last 3.

I was feeling really good after the first four splits so for the last one I foolishly decided to push harder than I should have and in the last minute I felt a twinge in my right hamstring. I eased of immediately but kept going to do the full 4 minute run. I could feel the hamstring during the cool down too , I'll see how it goes in the next day or so. I ttok the cool downs and recovery parts nice and easy

Today was one of those days I would have skipped a run if I wasn't following a plan. 5 hours driving and 5 hours at a meeting today home then to go to the fireworks display in Swords with the Grandkids, brilliant display by the way,

It was near eight by the time I could go for a run, the plan called for 50 minutes easy, I wasn't sick just tired , so on went the gear and off I went.

For the night that's in it I decided to go on a magical mystery tour of a few locations around swords where there used to be good bonfires when I was a nipper, I saw three bonfires and lots of fireworks. I had a lovely easy run.

Anyway I'm rambling now

Awake early this morning so I decided to get todays run in early. The plan today says 50 Min Easy.

My legs were a little heavy staring out so I took it really easy until they loosened out a little . I took my usual 5 mile Sunday morning route through a local park. Its a foggy , dewey but sunny morning, ideal running weather.

Felt good on the run, No niggles.

On the menu today was 8 x 60 second hill repeats with recovery with the usual 1 mile warm up and cool down. These really take it out of me and on the last one today I hadn't much left to give, that said I could jog back during the recoveries today, I had to walk back the last time.

I didn't go flat out on them and I was trying to keep an even effort on them all. I actually managed to work the watch properly and record all the splits toady.

Thanks , I'm delighted it's not only me that finds them tough. On paper it looks easy, its only 8 minutes running, my hill is quite steep.

I don't think I hate them, there is a sense of achievement once they're finished which tends to override the desire hate them.

Its the toughest session of this week done and dusted the rest of the week is handy enough.

50 minutes easy today @10.41 pace avg hr 133,

Nothing really to report except it took my watch 4 minutes to lock onto the satellites so the run wasn't recorded properly, the first 4 minutes are missing.

Apart from that I broke the 700 mile barrier for the year so far, which while I'm delighted to have reached that I'm a little irked that I only covered 80 miles in the first 4 months of the year. Still whats missed is missed and I've still ran more this year than last which is a positive.

I cetainly did . I havn't a clue why I wasn't up for it today . I'm usually raring to get out . Perhaps its just tiredness and i have a rest day tomorrow that will sort that .

It was a nice run along the coast. mile 7 an 8 were uphill on kilbarrick road from the howth road to coolock which is why the times dropped a little

Tempo session this evening. 66 minutes with 33 @ marathon pace which for me is 9:49 per mile.

I didn't get out until after dark , I couldn't really see the pace on the watch (eyesight not the best in the dark) so i just ran comfortable hard at a pace i felt I could maintain for 33 minutes.

Nearly came a cropper with a dog on a lead in the local park, the perils of running in the dark i guess. I'm going to try do my tempo session in daylight from now on if I can

woke at 4 this morning just couldn't get back to sleep :mad: so at 5.30 I decided to get todays run in early as I have one of my grandsons 6th Birthday party later today.

When I started running I did all my runs around this time so gear on and off I went, I didn't realise we had had a monsoon over night and it was still pouring down. I love running in the rain but there was so much surface water this morning my feet were drenched just running up Swords Main Street and running in soggy shoes and socks I don't like.

I barely broke sweat with the easy pace and cool running conditions. theres a good solid 1.5 miles totally uphill on this route (from the Balhery road through Applewood and on up to the Brackenstown road for anyone that knows swords).

I used this run to do little forward planning for phase 3 of the plan where I have to do 90 second hill repeats. I need another new hill fro these as the ones used to date would be too short.

I think I have found a nice hilly section on todays route , I ran it in just over 90 seconds today so it should be grand.

I had planned to switch Friday and Saturdays routine and do Malahide Park run instead of the fartlek but thats looking unlikely now due to life getting in the way. I will see how things pan out nearer the weekend.

I did my second ever park run this morning In Malahide. I didn't think i would be free to do this but that changed yesterday evening so I scrubbed yesterdays fartlek from my plans and took a second rest day to be fresher for today.

I woke at 8, had a feed or porridge and headed over to Malahide for 9. It was quite a wet morning and I love running ion the rain. I had a 10 minute warm up run and then lined up at the start and off i went.

From reading more experienced runners logs here I had developed a strategy for this run. I decided that I was not going to weave in and out between runners from the start and I was going to keep it comfortable for the first Lap and take it from there and go all out at the end if I had anything left.

Lap one was very comfortable for me, the field thinned out nicely , I felt I was running well within myself, My breathing was nice nad even and the legs felt good.

I heard my watch beep just at the bottom of the hill , i had a quick look at it and it registered at 8.05 for the first mile. One lap down two to go I though just keep doing what I doing.


I passed a good few people going up the hill and into the start of the second lap and I was feeling really comfortable but decide to ease back a little for this lap and save a little to for the final lap as I Knew i was going well but didn't want to blow up .

Still feeling comfortable i pass more people but still conserving energy., this is new to me and I'm loving it and feeling really good.

Down the long straight A guy and goes by me and he's breathing really heavy, I'm stilll comfortable, Then I see the turn at the bottom of the hill about 200 meters in front of me, Grand I thought, at the top of the the hill is the start of the third lap and I'm running well and still quite comfortable lets kick on and see what happens..

The guy that passed me is about 10 meters in front of me now and I decided its time to up my pace , I go by him and a few other runners , I get to teh corn and turn up the hill.

Then I notice that the runners in front of me are heading for the finish line but i hadn't hear my watch beep for mile 2, Sure enough I was at the finish I passed another few going up the hill , there's a lady runner just in front of me moving slower that I was but I hadn't the heart to go by her in the last 20 meters I eased in behind her for a new 5k pb of 25:15 1 1:37 of my old time.

I'm delighted with the PB but I'm also a little put out that I was holding back a little for a third lap that didn't exist. Still it leaves a little room for improvement, Jingle bells look out.

Sorry for the long report for a park run (just wait till I do a marathon, I'll write a book) but it is only my second ever and it was a pb.

Haha, you think that's a long report? I made the parkrun out to be the Olympics today!

Well done one the PB, sounds like you've plenty more to take off that at Jingle Bells.
