Finally it seems that I am getting a bit of proper running together.
Last week I managed 75km - one of my best weeks ever distance wise, and this week is not far off, even after taking 2 days off.
I have to be careful though with my right knee - I feel a slight twinge. That is an old injury, it feels like cramp in the front of my leg/knee, but it must be a strain of some kind. Not surprising I guess as the distance has increased a bit suddenly, and I need to be careful.
Well I guess I need to rest tomorrow, before I try a 30 km Sunday :)

It was pleasant today to do some proper intervals. It's funny though how tough these are after I was so fit last year. I did 4x800m today and was struggling. I was doing 10x800m at the end of last year! Plus most of those 10 were faster than I could manage today. But I am pleased to do 4 - I couldn't last week...

I need to start the breathing exercises soon, I think that made a HUGE difference for me last year,and every little helps.

Anyway, looking forward things look good. I just need to keep things going - I am curious how quick I can go in Debrecen. Probably 1h35 I would think.

I got this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000NJXFWS/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is the most basic one I think.

I think that I found breathing was easier after using it. It is a funny thing to use - I need to breathe in 30 times, and I face resistance each time I breathe. No breaks and breathing only through the device.

As I get better, then I can increase the resistance. This all increases the power my breathing muscles need to use.

The idea is that this should help towards the end of the race. I think it does. I was not thinking about breathing at all towards the end of my races last year, and I was recording mybest times.

I have a whole book on this topic, but I got a bit bored after 3 chapters :)

The only problem with it is that I sound like Darth Vader :) my family don't appreciate it that much.
