On The Run: Race Report - BRAT Rowheath 5km Series - Race 3
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/race-report-brat-rowheath-5km-series.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Saturday, 13 August 2011. Race Report - BRAT Rowheath 5km Series - Race 3. As in June I waited for the official results to be published before posting my report. My best time at Rowheath was that race in June where I returned a time of 19:42, 31 seconds outside my PB set at Cannon Hill parkrun. I've spoken to several people who agreed that the Rowheath course is around 30 seconds slower than Cannon Hill. A pal from my old club Sparkhill Harriers. On the second lap I was ...

On The Run: Extending the Interval Session
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/extending-interval-session.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Wednesday, 10 August 2011. Extending the Interval Session. Back to Swanshurst Park for the speedwork on Tuesday, building up the efforts to four minutes - four repeats of four minutes off two minute jog recoveries. The jog there and back went well, and I think I've worked out how to record the session on my Garmin now, but still managed to keep hitting the wrong button, or the right one at the wrong time! So, here are the stats, then:. Rep 3 (2 mins): 6:15.

On The Run: Getting a Few Miles In Before the Weekend
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/getting-few-miles-in-before-weekend.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Monday, 8 August 2011. Getting a Few Miles In Before the Weekend. It's been quite a busy weekend and I'm afraid I've fallen behind somewhat on my postings here, so I'm playing catch up again! I ran 7.6 miles home from the office on Thursday evening at a very steady 8:35 pace, apart from the hill up Dads Lane and through Highbury Park which was more like 9:15. Mileage is still down on target, but there's plenty of time to pick it up before Bristol. View my complete profile.

On The Run: Running With Bugs
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/running-with-bugs.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Thursday, 18 August 2011. My social life got in the way again at the weekend so I wasn't able to run on Sunday. As a result I had to squeeze my long run in on Monday evening. Had I the foresight I'd have run home from work, but as it was it was nearly half past seven when I hit the road. The plan, such as it was, was to repeat last Monday afternoon's session. As you might imagine this slowed me significantly - 7:15 turned into about 7:55. View my complete profile.

On The Run: July 2011
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Thursday, 28 July 2011. Taking it Easy or Just Being Lazy? I'm not sure what slowed us down yesterday evening. I've not run much recently, and I've put that down to the walking trip - not really in the mood and probably a little tired still. Anyway it was rather a slow one. No run this evening - telling myself I'm resting for Sunday's race in York. Am I kidding myself? Maybe Let's see how the race goes. Monday, 25 July 2011. A Short Slow Run. Sunday, 24 July 2011. I did ...

On The Run: January 2011
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Sunday, 30 January 2011. Well, that icy wind has disappeared, thankfully, so I took advantage of quite a mild morning and enjoyed a reasonably brisk 10 miles. Basically the route I improvised on Monday, amended slightly to make it exactly 10, and run a little bit quicker - aiming for around 1:20 and finishing in 1:18:34, so averaging 7:51 per mile. My pal wants me to do Chester. Saturday, 29 January 2011. Race Report – Cannon Hill parkrun Event 23 - PB! I had to wait for...

On The Run: Race Report - Cannon Hill parkrun Event #51 - PB!
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/race-report-cannon-hill-parkrun-event.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Tuesday, 16 August 2011. Race Report - Cannon Hill parkrun Event #51 - PB! There was talk of changing the route yet again so as to avoid potential problems with the cricket parking, as we knew that cars would be crossing the course to get to the temporary parking. In the end we stuck to the current route and kept our fingers crossed! Martin Williams at Edinburgh. He is in my age group, and went on to beat me by six places and 53 seconds! By the time I first got to Fergal...

On The Run: Race Report (nearly) - Colwick parkrun - Freedom Run
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011/08/race-report-nearly-colwick-parkrun.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Monday, 8 August 2011. Race Report (nearly) - Colwick parkrun - Freedom Run. In Nottingham for the weekend, I went with my friends Sophie and Liz to Colwick. As it turned out, we then couldn't find the start, because there was no-one there of course and there are no markings. We set off anyway, from about the right place as it turned out. Liz and I both decided not to take an official time, so didn't enter the finish funnel, but my Garmin showed 20:57. The volunteers wer...

On The Run: February 2011
http://rkontherun.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
2011 - a year's running exploits. Sunday, 27 February 2011. Race Report - Action Heart 5. It was cold this morning as a few of the brave souls huddled together in the Action Heart. Marquee made their way outside to watch the walkers set off, half an hour ahead of the main event, and then dashed back inside, teeth chattering and knees knocking - or was that just me? Anyway, a short while later we went for a short jog down to the loos and back, then I pushed my way into the pack to try to get warm again.
