On this day:

1:30 Easy-Steady, 13 Miles Approx.


FOR the weekly long run, I ran a loop combining many of my staple runs. I started off with a loop of Prospect Park, followed by going down Circuit Lane, via the subway. I then picked up the canal and ran towards Newbury to 'the Lock'. Then I turned around and came home via the white bridge & Mill Lane. This took 1:24, so I followed it with a 3 minute out & back along the Bath Road towards Tilehurst. I ran the run in my older NB 834's with my Old Man. I ran the enitre tun forefoot striking - I didn't need to force the mechanic, I just appear to have programed the movement pattern in, so that I automatically land on the ball of my foot 85% of the time. My calves weren't sore at all for the first 30 minutes of the run, and they eased off within 5 minutes of my finishing the run. I have no niggles and I'm not particularly tired, so the coming week should be pretty good.
