I know. I doubted myself for a minute and checked with Ariana before replying. You’ll see further down the plan when it’s pace it states which miles are pace but in this case the colour is referring to the pace fore the strides.0 -

Planned marathon pace Coogy
Edit - if you scroll to the right of the plan you'll see each column is colour coded with the definitions
The colour coded is relating to the 'strides' in the run, the pace is easy unless it's states 'pace' in the description in which case it's PMP or Planned Marathon Pace. We'll talk more about PMP at the weekend as the first 'pace' run on the plan is next week.

I’d ideally push it further into the evening but have to be up at 5am in the morning for work so need to get it done at a reasonable hour! It will stand to us all to get the miles in under these conditions though. That’s what I keep thinking. An excuse to work on the ‘farmers tan’ as well!!!
I've developed a ridiculous shorts tan from running the last few weeks

Frustrating! Have you had physio yet or is Friday the first session? Hopefully physio will keep you running. Can you swim or cycle for fitness in the mean time?
Friday was the first available slot and first appointment with this physio. Second physio appointment in general and sneaking suspicion that current issue might have been caused by over zealous treatment applied during first physio appointment. That and possibly me not giving my body time to recover from the beating
Can't swim, do cycle but will see on Friday if a longer term alternative is required. Hopefully not and I'll be back in the game.0 -

True story:
It's my wedding anniversary this week and I got the jump on this one early and got my wife a nice present a few days early (extra brownie points in the bag).
So yesterday evening, my wife asked me what I wanted, so I held her hand and looked deep into her eyes, kissed her gently on the cheek and whispered into her ear. She looked at me and said 'really?' and I said 'yes really!'. She then said 'oh go on then'..... so she signed me up the Rock n Roll Half Marathon in August ....:D
So happy.......I finally have a wife that truly understands me

I realised my husband was my soul mate the day I came in from a long run and he had an ice cold bath ready for me with a glass of Guinness!! True love right there.
I've signed up for the rock n Roll Half too, months ago when I was planning my summer races. Then I saw the route for this year... Holy moly.....0 -

Yep, I did it last year and I thought that the course was a bit hilly anyway (Christchurch, IMMA, Magazine hill,Upper Glen Road etc), so although the new course looks a little tougher, I would enter it as a training run anyway and just enjoy the atmosphere.
I think that running in a large event like this is good prepp for the DCM and it might be warm too, so it should be a good workout too.
I can't do the DCHM this year as I have family stuff on that day, so the Rock N Roll HM is on the list instead 0 -

Fair play! I did it last year too and really enjoyed it, but it doesn't suit me this year. And when I saw the new route I can't say I was too devastated to be missing it :P Although I'm now considering one that Hobbyjogger mentioned that looks even worse...0 -
