International athletes

No, not us!

Back from the NIA where we watched some great athletics - including Kelly Holmes of course.

Great Russian pole vaulters - remember them from Athens?

Kluft and Sotherton battling it out in long jump and hurdles - Kluft 2 Sotherton 0

And more.


Oh and me?

decided against threshold on the tready - had run 2 days on the trot and did not want to tempt fate.

So did 30 minutes on the X-trainer and then some resistance work.

what: cross trainer + resistance
time: 70:00 total

Athletic meets are fun aren't they.

One of my fondest sporting memories is watching David Bedford break the world 10k record at Crystal Palace.

I'm glad you enjoyed the trailplus weekend. I did it last year and had a great time. It is a really good programme to get you going.

The question is (after their advice) are you a base trainer or are you not a base trainer?

I think I am a base trainer, in that I do most of my plodding at 70-75% HR - but cannot see myself ever managing to do it every day - too much else to fit in to life.
