End of week

Thursday: 4 miles
Friday: 6 miles with watch, at 8:15 average per mile

If I claim 3 miles for my 90 minutes football on Saturday, my total for the week was 21 miles. More of the same next week, but probably aiming to creep up to the mid-20s.

4 miles, again

Monday: 4 miles easy
Tuesday: 4 miles steady
Wednesday: rest

Not much to report. The running feels fine, and no niggles to complain about.

Rounding up last week

The rest of last week went as follows:

4 miles on Wednesday
Rest on Thursday
4 miles on Friday
90 minutes of football on Saturday
Rest on Sunday

That gave me 20 miles for the week.

I'm feeling all stiff and sore after my first 90 minutes of football in a long time, so I'll try and ease that with an easy 4 miles (in the snow!) tonight.

Another 4 miles

Distance: 4 miles
Time: unknown

I'm running without a watch just now since I am in unfamiliar territory. Last night I managed 4 miles in a fairly blustery and cold wind. I plan more of the same tonight!

Temporary loss of access

Wow, doesn't time fly. I've just realised that its been a month already since I last posted here. Quick explanation: I've been working away from Edinburgh since mid-January and haven't had easy 'unrestricted' (i.e. no internet access apart from my work laptop which filters out sites such as blogspot unfortunately) access to the web. That's solved now and, although I'll be working away from home for another month or so, my running diary should at least get back to normal.

Short summary of my running over the last month - ticking over, running on average every second day at mid-20 miles per week. My knee is (touch wood) fully recovered, and I've only really been hampered by an inability to force myself out running very early in the morning or very late at night. All of the time in between has been taken up by work, although that will hopefully slacken off now too.

This weeks running:

Saturday: 4.5 miles
Sunday: 4 miles (including an extremely steep and long hill section)

OK, time to catch up on some blogs....
