It was an evening when all the injured returned!! We had Mike Y (Calf), Sandy (Foot), Kate (foot), Nick (sickness) and Pete (Back) all back running this evening following recent problems. All came through the session impressively and, more importantly, without any twinges, tweaks or tightness!! Mike Y was closing in on the 7mins per mile average before his injury at Xmas. It was great for him to be back running tonight and he was rightly focused on getting the miles back in to the legs before setting any records. Sandy was the same – Very pleased to complete the challenging 4.3mile route without any repercussions! He was joined on the run by Pete, with his first run since before Xmas. A detailed pre-stretch and new trainers seemed to take some pressure off of his back and he finished with a smile and no ill-effects. Their average of just over 10mins per mile was very impressive for a “steady!” training run! Nick finished just in front of them with a sprint finish that saw him dip under the 10mins per mile average. Also with a sprint finish was Kate. She ran with Bruce on the way round who set her a good pace, though it was the Sprint finish that resulted in her beating last weeks time and completing her best run since 9th September last year!
Running just before the club itself due to another commitment was Charles. It was a great run too as he shaved 18 seconds off last weeks achievement and was only 7 seconds per mile off his PB! Great run Charles, well done!
With so many returning from injury this evening very successfully it would be good for all to have a focus – therefore I would recommend you all look to book in for the Eastleigh 10k held on Sunday March 31st. Be quick as places are limited. You can book in here – http://www.runningmania.co.uk/
