I've the Belfast Craic 10k on Monday (St Patricks Day)
Not run a 10k in race colours since May 2023. Looking forward to it. I've been able to recover very quickly from running the distance but I've been running it in an hour. Usually it would be 52-53m for a faster 10k by me. But after a long period out then only running 5ks, I'll be happy with a finish.
Good training for after the game though, trying to get ahead of the crowdFirst outdoor run in a while, did 5km down past BMD not even seeing the new ground helped with the pain haha I hate running!
Anybody doing the half on Sunday? It'll be my first, bit worried about the Upper Parliament Street climb. Still I've managed a few decent distances in recent weeks including an 18k on Friday, my legs were in bits on Saturday though.
I know I'm probably teaching my Granny how to suck eggs here but.....remember when running a hill to pump your arms harden than normal. It helps your lungs expand more because of the expansion of the chest cavity, enabling you to conquer the hill easier.Anybody doing the half on Sunday?

In the late 70s / early 80s I used to jog/run from Goodison to Lime Street to get ahead of the crowd.Good training for after the game though, trying to get ahead of the crowd![]()
Sounds like youāre well on trackMy marathon training is going ok , basically on track . I set off for an 18 miler last Sunday with 2 miles easy + 14 miles at marathon pace 2miles easy. When I got to 17 miles I thought Iād go for it and add on another 2 easy miles to make it to 20 . While pleased with completing that itās taken a bit out of my legs this week ,
