DEBBIE MARTIN-CONSANI

OK, next on the agenda was a hill run. So, any normal person would have gone up the Whangie. Possibly the Cobbler. Or Ben Lomond at a push. ...

Well, I did. Bite the bullet and turned up for my first road relay. I've always managed to wiggle my way out of winter races with the cl...

No running for me today. Just a bright 'n' early session in the gym before work. 2min reps on the rower (32mins and 6k), stretchin...

Marco was in London today, so I went to training myself. I did think he was away working, but he texted me this afternoon to say he'd ju...

After half-marathon on Sunday and 5K time trial last night, I wasn't sure how I'd be on my Wednesday tempo jolly. First thing I noti...

My love for the 5K time trial is right up there with the 1k reps. I loath having to work to hard. So, fair play to me, I did both sessions w...

Well, there's the windy city...and then there's the Prestonpans half-marathon. What a stouter of a day it was. The first four mile...

Just a few miles of slow pace and some strides...to prepare for tomorrow's half-marathon. My legs felt quite heavy. Maybe that was bec...

Well, there's a first for everything. I feel that rowing is giving my lungs a good workout, so reps seems like the obvious step. Need ...

Club tempo run. Tried to cool it, as I want to save myself for Sunday's half marathon. Feeling ready good, as there was no Wednesday t...

6070m woohoo. Going to treat myself to a wee pineapple tart. Craaaaaaaaaazy, I know.

Usually this is the kind of session that I wriggle my way out of. That and 3k time trials. Too much like hard work! Anyway, determined to...

Another PB. 5910 in 30 minutes. Step closer to the goal of 6000. Legs were a little tired this morning, but gym sorted them out.

Long run today. Just 10 miles on the schedule, as I've got a half marathon next week. Well, it was as wet as wet can be. Lying in bed wi...

First session of one minute reps. Fifteen of the delightful little sprints on the schedule. Started out a little rusty, but felt a whole lot...

First sign of winter....Gym this morning. Another rowing PB. 5840 in 30 minutes. Ab work and stretching. Trying to stick to regular stretchi...

Six mile tempo with the club. Phew! That was a tough one. Along Kelvin walkway, through botanics, west end, GW Road and up through Annieslan...

Gym session this morning. New PB for rowing - 5835 in 30 minutes. Getting close my target of 6000. Ab work with the medicine ball and some s...

On the Garscube training schedule for tonight was continuous hill reps. As if I hadn't had enough of hills for a couple of days. Anyway,...

Monday morning blues. Feeling a bit gubbed. Long runs, five munros and late to bed and I'm a little tendor and a whole lot crabbit. My l...

Five munros in eight hours across Ben Lawers. Sounds horrendous. At least it did when I was studying good ol' Camron McNeish's book....

...well, if you can call it a long run. Haven't ran over 10 miles since Helensburgh half at the beginning of August. Wedding, holiday an...

Actually I was wide awake at the that time, so thought it would be best to go in the morning rather than lunchtime. Great session. PB on the...

Feeling a bit tired today, as was up late waiting for Marco to get back from Mountain Rescue call out. Legs feeling OK after last night...

I don't think Lesley expected my to start the day with a 5.30am rise and gym session...but really wanted to keep my rowing and strenth c...

First day of the REAL training plan. 5.5 miles of Fartlek with Garscube. I've been moved up to pack E. Out with C, D and E so not too...

Signed up for Prestonpans (where??) half-marathon on September 23. Feeling a bit more positive. Living a clean cut life until then. Decide...
