- I made a few mistakes with my training this week. Navigating around sick family can be tough. You've got to make smart decisions. I did not.
Training for a marathon is like fighting a gorilla. You don't fight until you're tired, you fight until the gorilla is tried. H. Keddell, 2018.

I was hoping for bit of a quieter week at work also to help recover from the Brisbane half marathon last Sunday where I broke into a sub 1hr40mins with a time of 1hr37mins but it wasn't to be, in 4 days at work I have done 93.5kms 😕
I got a great training session in on Tuesday 1km on 1km off and was holding 410-420pace nicely which I was super happy with.
I was thinking this week I will try and increase my interval training from 8kms up to 10kms like you are doing, though the long run was not as comfortable today. I put it down to the massive week at work doing big set ups all week.
Are you recovering with a good cooldown? And using a foam roller, massage gun etc to help recovery?
It definitely helps me
Wow that’s a lot of ks to be covering at work! It must make it really hard to recover and get the training in. That’s the big difference between you and I with training. I get nothing from work so have to do a lot more easy ks. I’m doing my best to get a good cool down in. I try to finish my workouts about 2-3k from home so I’m forced to do it. I already feel guilty for not being home so end up running straight home. I’m really not good at the recovery 1%ers. I know it would help but i’m slack! Now you’ve gone 1:37, what are you aiming for in Cairns?
@runningwithaj I would love to see if I could knock over a 1:35 on a flater track
Haha
I still can't believe I am in the 1:30s I thought I might get there by my last Half marathon in Townsville
I hope you get into the Elite category with a sub 1:30 🤜🤛 your chasing
Must be not nice
You’re so insightful
