I have been putting the work in over the last two weeks;
Sun 29th 27km at midday - Hot 1;58;57 or 4;24's K's
Mon 30th 10.6k 44;35 or 4;14 K's
Tue 1st 10.6 40;34 or 3;50 K's
Wed 2nd 10.6km 42;26 or 4;00 K's
Thur 3rd 10.6km 40;47 or 3;51 K's
Fri 4th 5.7km 23;39 or 4;09 K's
Sat 5th 2Km warm up 5 X 1000m Nudgee Tartan track- 200m jog recovery;
3;07 156bpm (max166)
3;08 163bpm (max173)
3;07 167bpm (max177)
3;07 166bpm (max179)
3;04 180* (max202*) *??
A tough session in hot and windy conditions so particularly encouraged by those times. The recovery between 4th and 5th KM was doubled due to exhaustion.* Think the heart rate monitor played up on the last interval as my maximum heart rate is normally 180bpm and this interval had me starting at 202bpm for a minute before heading into the 170's.
Sun 6th 30km Newport to Contarf (and back) 2;04;16 or 4;08 K's a hot day. I averaged about 4;00 min K's for the 15km up to Clontarf then turned around and realised the wind had assisted me and so had to battle into it on the way back, closer to 4;20's - 4;08 overall.
Also had to duck and weave through the Redcliffe markets and the hundreds who were enjoying a day at the beach!
Mon 7th am 10.6km 44;03 or 4;10 K's I was stuffed from the weekend!
Tue 8th pm 5.7km 24;02 4;12 K's still stuffed!
Wed 9th am 10.6km (Garmin did not pick up GPS for first 200m) 44;15 worth 4;10 K's
Thur 10th am 10.66km 43;45 4;06 K's
Fri 11th am 10.9km 45;25 4;11 K's
Saturday I am Running Masters.
3000m and maybe a leg of 4 X 1500m with the geriatrics from Broad Hill Nursing Home

So need to run on a real track again, I will have to race this summer, a bit away from the trails and road will do me good!

Concerned at the plight of Broad Hill nursing home , highlighted in a recent BBC documentary , Dave Sweeney, the Global face of Garmin , staged a reenactment of his world record relay run from two years ago that first launched the GTrain onto the world stage . Sweeney 's presence ensured a large and supportive crowd who donated generously to the "Friends of Broad Hill" trust established by Sweeney . The enactment was also part of the production for the up coming Hollywood blockbuster The Mr.Garmin Story staring George Clooney (who bares a striking resemblance to the affable Scotsman ) playing the leading role . The movie traces the life of Sweeney from his humble beginnings in the back streets of Glasgow to his rise to mega stardom after arriving in his adopted homeland as a boat refugee some 10 years ago.
Scotland Glasgow?
Please just stick with London Irish thanks :-)
