Training week (Feb 6th - Feb 12th)

Marathon update of blog part II.

Saturday February 6th - Rest Day
Not so much of a rest, spent the morning trying to keep up with my niece, but no training.

Sunday February 7th - 11.6km Run
Managed to get one run in while I was in the UK, thankfully it wasn't as cold and icy as the last couple of times I was over. It was at a good Sunday run pace, not pushing things too hard.
11.63km 4:27min/km 51:45

Monday February 8th - Rest Day
Had to catch up with all the work I didn't do over the weekend so no time to train.

Tuesday February 9th - 1,000m Swim
Managed to make it to the pool, good swim again, benefitting from having new goggles that don't leak.
1,000m 26:00

Wednesday February 10th - 13.4km Run
Didn't go too far, I wanted to keep a little bit back for a half marathon race on the following weekend, not the quickest again, but a good run.
13.43km 4:35min/km 1:01:33

Thursday February 11th - 1hr Football
Again failed to score, but played ok as far as I can remember.

Friday February 12th - Track Session 5km + 2.2km
Before Sunday's half marathon I wanted to do some quicker paced km's, ran to the track, then did 5km in a little under 20 minutes, so 4min/km. That is a good deal quicker than I'm likely to run a half marathon at at the moment, but it felt good and had plenty left, so had a comfortable run back home.
7.19km 4:26min/km 31:55
