Week: 27/12/2010
Day: Sunday
Time: 8pm
Pace/Type: Mid tempo
Course: Home residential circuit
Shoes: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 10 (Meduim, Support, D Width)
Clothes: Adidas Response Half-Zip long sleeve top. Adidas Clima365 Tights.
Health: Legs were really feeling the last harder run. The inside of both lower legs especially. Not sure if it's shoe related (ie. time for a new pair) or maybe I need to improve my warm up, or stretches after run?
Sleep: Good
Distance: 4.8 miles. 2 laps of 2.4 mile circuit
Time: Somewhere around 55 mins, not timed
Comments: I knew my lower legs we're feeling the last harder run. Even from a quarter of the way round, it was obvious the inner side of both of my lower legs were painful.
Need to investigate possible new shoes or changes in warming up and stretches after run.
Also, I only wore 1 layer. While the tights were fine, once I was a bit damp up top, I got cold. An additional thin training top underneath would have been better.

Day: Friday
Time: Midday
Weather: Damp/Overcast. 4c.
Pace/Type: Easy
Course: Work lunchtime run. Half cross country, half road with small hills.
Shoes: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 10 (Meduim, Support, D Width)
Clothes: Puma Half-Zip long sleeve top. Adidas Shorts.
Health: Good
Sleep: Good
Distance: 5.5 miles
Time: 52.08 (PB - 49.52)
Comments: One of those where I really didn't feel up for it. First 2 miles over cross country went well. Last quarter of cross country was tough before getting on the road. Once on the road, found it easy to get into a steady pace. Last mile was more than my body wanted to do, but the steady grid-it-out pace helped. This run also showed up the massive difference between this course and the all road/completely flat home run.
90% sure I'll enter the Bristol 10k in May.

Pace/Type: Mid tempo
Course: Home residential circuit
Shoes: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 10 (Meduim, Support, D Width)
Clothes: Adidas Response Half-Zip long sleeve top. Adidas Clima365 Tights.
Health: Good, ate too close to run, about 30 mins before, felt a little heavy half way round
Sleep: Good
Distance: 4.8 miles. 2 laps of 2.4 mile circuit
Time: Somewhere around 55 mins, not timed
Comments: Felt great to start. I let my legs do what they wanted. Quite a quick pace compared to Monday. Pace slowed at the half way point. Legs felt strong and did everything I asked them too, probably due to the 10 days rest. All the little niggles I was dealing with before the break have gone away.
Maybe it's worth scheduling in a 10 day break every 3/4/6 months to clear niggles or tiredness...?
