FLM 2005: End of the Line for Me :o(
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/02/end-of-line-for-me-o.html
Friday, February 25, 2005. End of the Line for Me :o(. Physio visit. Knee has been niggling for too long, and hampered my training. Well - the good news is that we thing we've identified the problem and I've got stuff to do for it, and had some massage and ultrasound. The bad news is that there's no way I'm going to be okay to run and be able to build up the mileage in time for April 17th. Okay - I may limp round, but what's the point?

FLM 2005: Hmmmm.....
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/02/hmmmm.html
Saturday, February 05, 2005. Well - the usual Average HR, but about 5 mins slower than I was at. The first half of the run was dire, but the second half picked up for some unknown reason. There were lots of walk breaks at points where normally I could BT with no probs :o(. Worse though, was the fact that the knee was twingeing badly. Not impossibly so, but I fear it will continue to play up and I may have to defer :o(. Posted by XFR Bear @ 12:24 pm. At 7 February 2005 at 13:16. Leon - Aim High! Getting t...

FLM 2005: More Base, less Speed!
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/01/more-base-less-speed.html
Tuesday, January 11, 2005. More Base, less Speed! My usual 6 mile route up Northey Avenue. I really didn't get the pace right today, starting off too quickly and somehow not quite managing to stay under my target well enough. It was only a few BPM difference, but it did mean I kept having to walk. Was it tiredness, too much coffee, a lurking lurgy, or what? Just need to get some more stats to go into it! Watch this space :o). Posted by XFR Bear @ 10:02 pm. View my complete profile.

FLM 2005: Probably Shouldn't Have Run
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/01/probably-shouldnt-have-run.html
Tuesday, January 25, 2005. Probably Shouldn't Have Run. I've had the lurgy for the past week or so, and although a bit gunky still, I really felt like a run tonight. I did doubt whether I should somehow, ass my HR standing at the door was over 90, whereas normally it is around 72 before I set off. Anyhoo - I quickly realised this wasn't going to be a run where my HR stayed down. I soon got to the double beep that told me I was above the zone, and I was deliberately being careful to take it easy!

FLM 2005: January 2005
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2005. My Knee has Broken, Like the First Morning. Bad news - my left knee seems crocked :o(. Which means lots of rest. I think it's the bursa just below the knee on the inside. It's not impossible to run with, but I figure I'll just make it worse if I do. I haven't done a long run with a couple of weeks with the lurgy, so this is a bad thing. Posted by XFR Bear @ 3:21 pm. Tuesday, January 25, 2005. Probably Shouldn't Have Run. One I shouldn't have done. In my defence it had been t...

FLM 2005: Now I Know What a Slice of Lemon Feels Like
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/01/now-i-know-what-slice-of-lemon-feels.html
Sunday, January 09, 2005. Now I Know What a Slice of Lemon Feels Like. Distance: 13.5 miles. Add to that I had some twinges from the Saturday BodyPump class, and was feeling really sluggish for some reason, and it all made for not a good day to run! Still - I did it, and I'm glad I did too, as it's the longest run so far this campaign, and until the last couple of miles actually felt pretty good. After about eleven pretty comfortable miles, my legs started to feel tired (fair enough really! Today the leg...

FLM 2005: The Twilight Zone?
http://xfr-bear.blogspot.com/2005/01/twilight-zone.html
Friday, January 14, 2005. Great run - everything went smoothly, with barely any walk breaks - even on the steepest hills. Even when I did need to stop, it was just for 20 seconds walking before the HR dropped again. BT index = 10000/(pace per mile x average heart rate). Here the pace per mile was around 9:07, or about 9.1 mins/mile, so we have. BT index = 10000/(9.1 x 139) = 7.91. Not sure what name I should give these! Posted by XFR Bear @ 4:53 pm.

Running towards London: Twitching: Promenade 5k race 2
http://runsusierun.blogspot.com/2008/07/twitching-promenade-5k-race-2.html
This is my blog of my training experiences for the London Marathon, April 13th 2008 (and my previous marathons from London 2005 onwards). Having failed to gain championship qualification yet again, with a 3:15:18, I'm still hopeful of that magical 3:15 mark or a sub-1:30 half marathon. Running, more running but very little windsurfing! Thursday, July 03, 2008. Twitching: Promenade 5k race 2. But Rachel's legs were having none of it. Karrie won the race again - good luck to her in the GB 800m trials in 10...
