Final Run in a Fallow Year

I think it is important to try to end the year on a high, and so with this in mind I set out for a final run in Wicksteed Park this morning. It is unseasonably warm here in Northamptonshire at present, even though we have been under a blanket of grey sky for a good … Continue reading Final Run in a Fallow Year →

Another Catch-up

  Hey, I am the catch-up runner! Well, I try to catch-up with those in front, but not particularly successfully. In fact, it is difficult to even catch-up with myself at times. Often my mind has raced ahead when I've been out for a training run, and only later have my legs caught up. It … Continue reading Another Catch-up →

Dark Satanic Treadmills

Oh, there has been a slight hiatus in my usually very strict training schedule. We elite athletes need to keep to the rules, and I believe my membership of the Elite Running Club (ERC)  is under review following recent weeks of lacklustre training. Rumours are afoot that we could be facing a DEXIT, and who … Continue reading Dark Satanic Treadmills →

Dreadmill Friday

This morning found me prevaricating about where to run. Last night I had thoughts of returning to the Brampton Valley Way for a gentle run, but there was a definite chill in the air this morning. This was confirmed by our very technical weather monitoring equipment in the garden. Yes, the birdbath was frozen. Erring … Continue reading Dreadmill Friday →

Yule Training Log

[Post-Christmas note - this article was originally posted with a header image of me in a funny Christmas hat, with sheep in the background, and the header title "Psychologist on the Sofa", with the strapline "Hey, if the hat fits, why not rest a while?"] Welcome to my special festive look blog! It is the … Continue reading Yule Training Log →

Bergtrek Friday

We are moving on from last week's Fartlekless Friday, and it probably seems a bit tortuous to try to get some continuity in the post titles. I have resorted to German, but I suppose it is in keeping with my little foray into Latin in an earlier post! It may also seem to some that … Continue reading Bergtrek Friday →

Fartlekless Friday

Not to mention Tempo-free Tuesday! It has been one of those weeks where lots of thoughts about running have not been put into practice. I think there are two main contributory factors to this state of affairs. Firstly, a lovely autumn cold, with all that entails - especially the lethargy, each movement as slow and … Continue reading Fartlekless Friday →

Ad Libitum Sunday Running

So, we're getting all highbrow now are we, throwing in a bit of Latin to make a mundane post seem more interesting? Absolutely. Guilty as charged. Mea culpa. Another deviation from tradition today because I undertook my long run in the late afternoon instead of in the morning. It actually worked out well, having time … Continue reading Ad Libitum Sunday Running →

Sunday Habits

It may well be the case that I have sinned against the esteemed establishment of elite runners (of which I am a dishonorable member), but I do not have any immediate plans to take Holy orders. The Sunday habits to which I refer are about getting back into the routine of regular running. Experienced long … Continue reading Sunday Habits →
