Out again yesterday morning with my mate up the road. We were a bit pushed for time so just a short 3.7 mile run around my usual loop. I'm hoping to get out for a longer run tomorrow morning.

I left it a bit late tonight and wasn't really feeling it so just did a half loop

You still made it out there though Darren.

A fellow canicross runner has just messaged me to ask if I want to go on a run with her tomorrow morning. We're going for a run over the Breidden and Middletown hills not far from Welshpool. There will be a lot of ascent and descent involved!

Absolutely cracking run out today with a friend and the hounds. 8.3 miles in the Breidden Hills, taking in Rodney's Pillar at Criggion, the gypsy memorial at Moel y Golfa, and the hillfort on Middletown Hill. 2749ft of elevation in all, in great conditions.

Forgot to take my Garmin, so I'm waiting for my friend to send me the gpx file. I'll post a link to Strava when I have it, along with some of the pictures I took.

**Edit** Had the gpx file from my friend now so Strava link to the run included above.

**Edit2** Link to the Relive vid of my run.

I finally got back to my running this week, couple of short runs tried running a bit quicker. Was a bit quicker but knackered after a 5k run

Nothing wrong with that DD, especially if you've not run for a couple of weeks. Take it steady and build up the speed gradually.

Just put a Strava link to my Thursday run on the Breidden Hills in my previous post.

I'm happy with it, a few pbs on strava. Just trying to work out whether I concentrate on distance or speed :confused: I'm looking at doing a couple more half marathons this year.
Already booked a 10k race at Mercedes Benz world next month

If you want higher speeds/faster pace over shorter distances then run longer distances as training. Only 20% of your total run should be at your maximum pace. The other 80% should be split equally between easy and moderate pace.
