Submitted by willthames on 3 April, 2012 - 12:22. With less than three months to go until the Gold Coast marathon, a progress update is long overdue. I'm running four times a week (consistently - I rarely miss a planned run, even though I almost always schedule my runs for the end of the day), I'm up to 24km on my long run, I've done intervals, hill sessions, boring loop repeats with tempting ways out (e.g. 4 x 6km loop at no point more than 2km from home). So my fastest effort today was at 4:16/km for 5...

Submitted by willthames on 25 April, 2012 - 09:49. I've been getting into data analysis and training performance is a perfect target for such analysis. NumPy and SciPy, I can graph the number of hours run. The python I used for this is. Note that I had to use ImageMagick's convert -trim repage to remove unnecessary white space for display here - I'm sure I could have fiddled more withpyplot for a while to achieve similar results). The data comes from my training summary. Race your pace half marathon.

Happy New Year - now back to it. Submitted by willthames on 1 January, 2012 - 12:12. I haven't updated this blog since Challenge Henley. I've barely. Three months off has done me no good at all. Drinking and eating my way through a north American winter and then landing in an Australian summer has done me no good at all either. My plans for 2012:. Lose 8kg and 2in (the impact of just three months slacking). Start shaving significant time off my 1500m swim (sub 30? Race your pace half marathon.

Bridge to Brisbane 10k. Submitted by willthames on 2 September, 2012 - 07:55. I had high hopes for this race - I'm pretty well trained, I ran 10k in training on Wednesday in 48:30 and doing an iconic race should have given me the motivation to do well. I knew that I had to get near the front or a lot of energy would be wasted getting past slower runners. However, never did I expect what actually happened. I wanted to do sub-46, in the end I managed 48:15 - my GPS suggests I ran 10.25km which I could ...
