Have done this before, or a variation of it at least… Very vexing on the joints so i wouldn’t be doing any cardio along with it. I also ate like a horse and unless you are very regimented this could lead to you eating the wrong foods as it seriously requires energy to sustain the programme.
Thanks for all the input, but I’m more looking for a program where I don’t actually have to do a whole pile
The Russian one is by far the shortest i have ever seen that has proven results.
Other than that Runt i’d say its Fair City your looking for.
Cheers, I’ll have to rope someone else into going with me cause otherwise I’ll just get bored and go home after 30 minutes
And still my question from last night remains unanswered. Should i eat my porridge before or after my run?
about an hour and a half to two before hand.
will it be a cross coutry affair Dunph or will you be out for a jog down the lane?
Running through the country, mickee…
You’re hardly going tonight Dunph are you? You shouldn’t over do it after playing the darts last night.
No, might start it tomorrow or the day after. It is too blustery out there tonight i could get run over or anything…
Did 3 laps of Ballybrit racecourse on saturday.
The going was yielding/heavy and the calves are aching still after it…about 1.5 mile per circuit.
The Hill is a pure bitch though.
Still it saves the joints anyway, I reckon once a week is enough to be road running.
good going KP. road running on tarmac is not the worse, its the concrete you have to be wary of. my achilles are got sore after long run. other than that training going well.
I am feeling very Olympic after my trip to the gym
I had a feed of spuds and chops there at around 7. What are the chances of getting a stitch if I head out now? A few miles of brisk walking is needed.
give it another 25 mins and you’ll be ok
Thats grand, it ties into my tv schedule and I unloaded a small load there a while ago.
best thing you can have prior to a run is a bowl of cereal about an hour before hand.
Yeah, perfect prep for a good long run. If your getting high on mileage youd want some fuel at some stage during the run. After 9 miles of the Connemara half marathon a few years ago I ate one of them energy bars at the bottom of the hill. I flew up the hill… placebo maybe but I definitly felt the benefit of it.
I think GAA players totally overdo it when it comes to training. I’m not sure these mad training programmes will be much use to you Kev come mid Cork junior b football league finals later in the year. A few schooners the night before a game is the best preparation I find
Everyone is different, i know lads who’d have massive feeds an hour or two before a game and it wouldn’t knock a thing out of them. Personally i’d need 3-4 hours and it would be light enough at that.
What did you do Runt?
