training log week ending 24th November

Anyway I ran the long run this morning - Sunday. I was pretty happy with how it went considering i only had one other run during the week - a hour on Thursday up in Cork. I am aware that I should be logging more miles than I am currently but I can only work with what I can do. Hopefully that situation will rectify itself over December. I ran 18 mls at a very slow pace - 9.13 pace - staying on my feet for 2hrs45mins. That was deliberate. Last Sundays half marathon was a faster pace but this route around Charleville makes a faster pace impossible. I was comfortable enough up to 2 hours (13mls) but started to feel uncomfortable for a mile after that before things settled down again. The last 1/2 mile home was dead on my feet time but I was glad to finish at that stage. I do hope to log around 18-20 miles during the week but I'm not sure what time I will get to do another long slow effort next weekend. I might push it to a Wednesday or Thursday week, maybe run it up in Cork.
