When I was about 10 or 11, myself and a few friends heading out for a bike ride. An epic bike ride. We didn’t really have where in mind, but we started from home (very close to Horntye). Sadly one of my friends got a puncture straight away and had to go home, but we got as far as Westfield football pitch where we stopped to play football for a bit and have some food. And ever we continued on, reaching as far as Brede I believe as I remember coming down that hill and feeling the rush of the wind in my face. The point? It was an adventure that we set off on without any time constraints. Much like you want to do on your 4 hour run, it’s an epic journey, one where you’ll need to take on fuel, most likely have a few stops, even walk a bit, but treat it as that, without any pressure, and go and enjoy it. Sarah T also has 240 in her plan this week. Hopefully neither of you get a puncture early on like my friend Jamie, who just so happens to be a Hastings Runner now.

Glorious day for it and really enjoyed that session. Played to my strengths. Was sweating buckets at the end! Split were: 10:48, 8:49, 8:37 and 10:36 Went too fast on the second rep.. user error on watch – forgot to mark the segment and was working on a rep 1 and 2 average! D’oh! But pleased with that session.
It’s a good one that session. Everyone seems to be enjoying these longer slightly slower reps. And I’m really pleased with the planning in the build up to the half marathons. Hopefully that will be evident in the teams results over the next 3 weeks or so. Great work Rebecca.

All done as per plan – no issues. Tad warm in the garage – but lovely!
Excellent work Rebecca. Suddenly the appeal of going into the gym yesterday was lost all of a sudden 🤷‍♂️

Done around fairlight but forgot to start Strava 😫 even took a nice photo in front of the daffodils and the Fairlight village sign!! Total time was 31 minutes, distance was 2.52 miles and elevation gain 265ft.
Nice elevation. Ah shame about Strava and that does sound like a very nice photo. Well done Rebecca (nearly called you the wrong name there 🤦‍♂️😂)

Done!!! Went out with the ladies for the HHM route (approx. 14 miles) then out to De La Warr for the second part (6 miles). Grateful for the company and speed control for the first part, then just said to myself it’s only 3 miles to DLW and if I can get there I need to get back! Just kept fuelling and taking a short walk breaks if I needed it. Very happy with distance and pace given it was hilly. Saw loads of HR out, including Emily who had run from Eastbourne. Felt tired but okay, still felt I could have gone on if I needed to. Will stretch tonight but we’ll see how I feel in the morning. (Strava is showing 4 hours 10 but I would say it’s nearer to 4 / 4:05 as I didn’t stop it whilst others went to the toilet, when I saw a friend on Harold Road and when I topped up bladder and supplies for the second route). … and all done in the orange socks!
So good. To hear that you felt you had some energy left at the end is music to my ears. You’re ready. We now just need to put the finishes touches to the plan, it might seem a long gap between this run and race day, but that will mean you’ll be fresh and not have too many miles in the legs. Thank you for rocking the orange socks as well, I did love that comment. 4 hours!! Wow. Imagine if we had said that 18 months ago. Look how far you’ve come. I hope you are super proud of yourself. I am. Fantastic running Rebecca.
