- Monday : rest
- Tuesday : 3 * 350ft reps of hill at far end of Tanybwlch beach (south of Aberystwyth)
- Wednesday : 6 * 250ft behind house
- Thursday : working overnight at an investment bank, training to stay awake
- Friday : cream crackered
- Saturday : 9 miles and 2500ft plus a game of football
- Sunday : some knee pain, I guess a side effect of the football. Plans for a big long run put on ice, went swimming with kids instead.
So the lesson of this week is don't play football, even a non physical game, as your body is just not used to quick and sharp turns.
4000ft and about 15 miles really does not cut it. Might need a day or 2 rest, but I don't think the knee pain is serious.
Next saturday is the Snowdon race where I am just going to enjoy the day and not worry about my time beyond doing better than 1 hour 50 mins. Need to get 6500ft in the early part of the week balanced against resting the knee on monday at least.
