Running Coventry: Millenium Way - Beyond Marathon, 2 March 2014
http://www.runningcoventry.co.uk/2014/03/millenium-way.html
Monday, 3 March 2014. Millenium Way - Beyond Marathon, 2 March 2014. It was the first running of this event and combined with the promise of an essentially flat course and a low entry fee this enticed me to try my first 'Ultra'. It's an early start anytime that you see the M42 empty of a morning. So, it was quite a pleasant drive to the meeting point in Burton-upon-Trent. A friendly face helped take my mind off the day ahead during the coach journey. And we arrived on the Millennium Way. The first ten mi...

Running Coventry: May 2014

Tuesday, 13 May 2014. Paris Marathon 2014 6 April 2014. Well where to start with Paris? Time for a quick carb load at the Trattoria Victoria. Very welcoming and flexible restaurant - table for 16 please? Saturday morning we headed down for the breakfast run. A 5k with the added allure of a 'free' breakfast, what better way to start the day? The start of this was on Avenue Foch which is the baggage drop/finish for the marathon on the Sunday, so this was a good opportunity to gain bearings. Champs-Élysées ...

Running Coventry: February 2014
http://www.runningcoventry.co.uk/2014_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, 1 February 2014. Coventry monopoly board run. A bit of a work in progress. At the minute it's just the locations (or similar replacements) for all the locations on the Coventry monopoly board. There should be an interesting (and looking long) run in there somewhere! One for the running bucket list I think. St Mary's Guildhall, Bayley Lane. Skydome Arena, Croft Road. Coventry Speedway, Rugby Road. Coventry Market, Queen Victoria Road. View Coventry monopoly run.

Running Coventry: Ashby 20, 9 March 2014
http://www.runningcoventry.co.uk/2014/03/ashby-20-10-march-2014.html
Monday, 10 March 2014. Ashby 20, 9 March 2014. The Aldi Ashby 20 Road Race. Many use this race as a warm up to an April marathon. It can be used to answer many questions - can I do it the distance, what time can I hope for? What can I eat during the run? What's my race strategy for the marathon? And of course the all important question on the day - what colour is the hoody going to be this year? A few minutes walk and you're out onto a road with the start to your right and off you go. From Ashby you head...

Running Coventry: Coventry Half Marathon 23 March 2014

Sunday, 23 March 2014. Coventry Half Marathon 23 March 2014. There's been an 18 month wait since the last Coventry half marathon. So, it was with some trepidation and nerves that we arrived at the start are for the 2014 Coventry half marathon. Coventry deserves a half marathon to be proud - would this be delivered? We met up with fellow club mates in the area outside the Coventry Transport Museum. From the start the race was well supported. Running through several areas there was a large amount of su...

Running Coventry: Notes on a
http://www.runningcoventry.co.uk/2014/07/notes-on-a.html
Monday, 21 July 2014. It'a a challenge, not a race don't get fixated on time. Take your time - use the pitstops. Take a rest have a break. Fuel properly the day before and on the morning. Check breakfast times at the hotels. Hot pot porridge tastes like crap and is not your friend. Need to find better fuel. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.

Running Coventry: August 2012
http://www.runningcoventry.co.uk/2012_08_01_archive.html
Friday, 17 August 2012. Mainly a note to self. If you get an injury keep a log so that you can review and compare in the future - where the aches are; what, if anything, you've done differently; what you did to resolve the issue. I've taken a bit of break from running for the last couple of weeks and have started cycling again. Not sure if that helps or hinders but I need to keep my core, aerobic fitness to at least some level. I've had my gait rechecked - i know that was a long shot but wanted to be sure.
