Wednesday 12/12/12
AM: Easy run 1 lap of Lyminge + a mile,
very slow as lot of ice about.
PM: Decided to drive down to Seabrook and do a run
along the canal bank as all
the country lanes were very slippery due to the ice. With the canal path
being gravelly there would be a little more traction!! Very cold again as I set
off from Seabrook towards West Hythe, but sheltered a little from wind.
6.5
miles was about a mile beyond the far end of Port Lympne Animal Park
where I just turned and came back. It was getting dark by now but could
just
make the path out, feeling quite tired by the time I was getting back to
Hythe
town with still a couple of miles to go but managed to slog on!!

Saturday 15/12/12
Kent Vets Champs Tunbridge Wells. Very wet
and muddy underfoot. Got about 4 miles
in as a warm up including drills and strides.
Probably went off too hard in first mile and was in lead for first half
lap, then slowed due to legs feeling very heavy due to high milage, as slipped
back to 12th place. However managed to rally a bit on the last lap
and was able to get two places back!! So finished 10th.
Did 1 mile cool down
PM: Distance: 10 miles Race Time: 00:35:28 Ave Race Pace: 7.09 m/m
Sunday 16/12/12
Woke up and felt exhausted, hips feeling
stiff and felt tired from Club Christmas party the night before. Had to call
off morning run with Tim and Angela and decided to go out later in the
day. Finally got out at about 4:30pm and
dragged my way round 18 miles, did two laps of the Folkestone 9 and got
gradually slower and slower as run progressed!! About 10 mins slower than last
week!!
PM: Distance: 18 miles Time: 02:26:13 Ave Pace: 8.41 m/m

Another good high milage week, due to cold icy conditions didn't push pace as very slippery, however at this stage speed work not so important. Had to compromise race a little as did not ease off and trained through.
