10/01/07 - Steady session

First run since falling ill last week. I felt a bit wobbly to start with but soon got into my stride. Was careful not to over do it so kept my heart rate in the 160-170 zone and made sure I didn't creep into the anaerobic zone - I want to make sure I don't get ill again so soon.

If you are training for FLM at the moment and are feeling under the weather with a cold or 'flu, don't panic. Now is a 'good' time to be ill and as long as you are aiming to get 'round and not particularly worrying about a target time or PB, you have still got time to get the miles under your belt. Be sure NOT to train if you are feeling poorly as this can exacerbate the situation. Rest up, take plenty of fluids and vitamin C and you'll be back on the road in no time.

That's all for now - swimming tonight, long run on Saturday and my first road bike session for about 15 years on Sunday!
