Do This Don't Do That
With many of the crew competing at Doomben on Sunday (half marathon or 10k - I've entered the half) Thursday morning's session was 30/30s followed with the monthly no-watch 1k. I nominated 4:35 for that.
The 30/33s were good, not too strenuous. As we were lining up for the 1k Toasty hunted me down and informed my he'd put down the same time as me, he wanted the opportunity to stir me for 4 minutes and 35 seconds. Luckily for me we were a tad ahead of pace and finished in 4:09.
Saw Adam the physio later in the afternoon and he says I can/should ...
increase the length of my runs - yay!
not to do slow runs as they seem to hurt more - makes sense
run every second day for now to allow for recovery - dang!
eat chocolate every day - I think I made that one up :-)

You can never eat too much chocolate. It's great for recovery I am told. ;-)
Gee, that Horrie is one wise fella ;-)
Does that mean you can do 12 hour runs at 5 minute pace?
I drove past 'Chocolart' tonight. I should have stopped in. More chocolate please.
mmmmm chocolate!! :) Good luck for Sunday.

oops ... hope i don't bring the 3:15's in under 3 hours .... somehow I think I won't have to worry about that.
There will be chocolate tomorrow if you are good.
Too late Tesso. I'm going to say "Tesso said eat chocolate every day" and she should know!
Congrats on being able to increase the length of your runs.
enjoy the weekend.
no kitkats for u!
do you have one of those things that lets you dangle chocolate in front of you instead of a carrot? you should get one. i'm sure the fizzio would recommend it.
Great to hear you can start building up your kms again. I think all physios should prescribe chocolate, it would make them so much more popular.
