99 Half Marathons done.. 1 to go !! 

QuoteDecember 19, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 8th December #97 done this morning in 1:47′ Started from Radbrook Community Centre at 9.30 Was raining when I started but only fine rain and sun was out and shining by the time I finished just after 11. Route wasn’t too challenging but legs were still sore from Sunday’s trail run and yesterday’s intervals […]

HM #95 & 96 and yearly mileage has passed 1500 miles !!

QuoteDecember 5, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 1st December  #95 done this morning. Had a sore knee since yesterday, happened after training session with Marcus. I strapped it and smothered it with deep heat. It was a very icy cold morning and I made sure I did an extended warmup. Had to combine the run with work once again because of […]

Three in 5 days: #41 #42 #43

QuoteMay 26, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

#41 : Sunday 22nd May  #41 done and dusted, number of remaining runs is now in the fifties 🙂 Was fairly easy today, weather was warm when I started around 11.30am. I was raring to go, only ran a couple of km at parkrun yesterday, had to abandon the run to help a fellow runner […]

#37 & #38, I keep marching on ( I mean “running on “) 

QuoteMay 12, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

No extra runs this week so Chester Half on Sunday 15th will be my 39th and not my 40th like I would have liked. I’m still one ahead of schedule and still have my two weeks break still in the bank 🙂 Saving them just in case I have an injury or will have a rest […]

# 34, 35 & 36 (760km so far this year)

QuoteMay 5, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Wednesday 27th April: #34 #34 done and I finally passed the one-third mark of my challenge 🙂 Today was tough, haven’t fully recovered from sunday’s run plus I had a bad back caused from lifting and moving heavy stuff, so very happy with finishing time of  1:42’01” Picked a 10,5 km course and ran two […]

#22 & #23, a parkrun PB and the longest warmup in history…

QuoteMarch 21, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 17th March:  #22 completed, 288 miles done, 1022 miles left.  This time next week it will be under 1000!! 😀 I didn’t feel too much pain during the three days after Ironbridge and I thought it would be easy today. But it wasn’t!  Legs and mainly the hamstrings felt really stiff from the word […]

#14 The Night Run …

QuoteFebruary 21, 2016February 22, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

After Sunday’s race I thought I would give myself an extra day rest, a 13 miler at 6′.50″/ mile pace is a good reason for extra recovery. Originally I planned to run #14 on Wednesday morning, but I gladly postponed it because of work commitments and decided to move it to Thursday around midday. Then […]

Hamstrings feel “tight”? Three exercises you should do…

QuoteJuly 3, 2015July 3, 2015 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Hello Runners  I often hear from people I train how tight and sore their hamstrings feel before, during & after workouts or runs. Hamstrings are muscles that are often weak, that’s why they feel sore, giving the impression that they are tight. Together with the gluteus group, their weakness will cause other muscles in our […]

Beach running, what a workout!

QuoteJune 12, 2015June 13, 2015 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Platanes, Crete 8am, sun already blaring!! Don’t know how hot it is but all I know is it’s now or it’s another day without running, and I have this need to run. Temperatures will reach 28c later on.  Armed with my Garmin and iPhone for music and Strava I jog to the beach which is […]
