Hi DW Runners!

How is your spring going? Training? Racing? The good, the bad and the ugly?

Let us know how you're doing these days!

It's taken me until this week (after my half) to get back up to any kind of half-decent (for me) weekly milage - the last 4 weeks, I've run less than 10K per week; this week I've run 16K so far, and plan to go for a short run tomorrow or Sunday.

So I'm hoping I'm getting back on track: ran a 7.5K race the other day in absolutely abysmal time - I PR'd by 20 secs, but my last PR was slow, and I thought I'd be faster, what with the HM training. Apparently not.

I have a 10K coming up, and maybe a charity 5K, and considering running a HM in June, and forcing myself to do it in intervals to see if it may be a better way of running a half, since I'm not going to train properly for it :)

It's not really busy - I uses races as a way to get out to run/instead of training with a running club. I don't train for these things anywhere near as hard as other people do/some people would have you think you should :)
