Running Up Around the Bend

Welcome to the penultimate post about my Edinburgh marathon adventure. This time next week it will all be over. There is one more post to come, hopefully giving a vivid account of the big event. After that, what on earth will I have to write about? Will my life be devoid of purpose and meaning? … Continue reading Running Up Around the Bend →

Running in a Straight Line

My posting schedule is about as reliable as a poorly run train service. Keen observers will have noticed there was no Sunday service. This was not due to planned engineering works. Other commitments meant that I had to take a swerve (not exactly a straight line, then - more later) and again risk incurring the … Continue reading Running in a Straight Line →

Running Behind Schedule

I skipped my Sunday long run this week - as in missed it, not that I actually skipped and gamboled like a lamb for several miles. That would be something to blog about! My plan was to do a Monday long run instead, but that didn't quite happen either. Quite happen? Let's be honest, it … Continue reading Running Behind Schedule →

Running with Jelly Babies

This is a sign of things getting serious - 35 days out from the big day and I'm turning my attention to my nutritional strategy. I have dabbled with dates, fiddled with figs, and today I've been jogging with jelly babies. They pack a good carbohydrate punch, and with correct pacing of their consumption, can … Continue reading Running with Jelly Babies →

Running in the Drizzle

Springtime has not really started in the steppes of Northamptonshire - sure, there are lots of daffodils and the trees are beginning to blossom, and birds have been busy collecting twigs for their nests, but the sky has not really got into the spirit. Grey skies and rain have dominated of late. But we elite … Continue reading Running in the Drizzle →

The Not-so-Long Good Friday Run

  I set out for my run this morning with intentions that proved to be greater than my ability to deliver. This was due to the recent downturn in my training because of feeling unwell. My cardiovascular and respiratory systems have had a bit of a holiday, so they were suffering from the first day … Continue reading The Not-so-Long Good Friday Run →

Running and Social Facilitation Theory

Oh, my mind was busy today as I trundled along for my weekly "long run". I was aiming for a Pavarotti. To be more specific, it was a flat Pavarotti. The flat part is self-explanatory - after my struggles with hills (or "positive inclines") during earlier long runs, I thought I would revisit a fairly … Continue reading Running and Social Facilitation Theory →
