Bike and running. <br />So i suppose i do two sessions a day. Lots of the top runners i have asked do this. Its very hard week in week out but if you want results then thats what you do. Its worked for me. <br />Others may get away with less but not me. And a lot of those sessions are hard.<br /><br />I ride lots of miles on my roadbike. Also ride the rollers a lot. <br />When its minus ten and ive been on the rollers for an hour in the shed listening to kasabian over and over again i do question what im doing.<br />I was fortunate enough to have a good chat with a top fellrunner and also a very very very good ex pro rider. <br />Both gave me good advice <br />Basically stop playing at it and train harder. <br />So 14 hrs a week.<br />Im lucky in that i enjoy the repetition of it all.Daz Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17653908967911840778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1808006461453621029.post-83338671311283989602011-09-07T13:16:39.418-07:002011-09-07T13:16:39.418-07:00Kate i do lots of climbing.

Kate asks about the amount of climbing in your training - I'd be interested in some info on the overall training you've done and how that compares with the top runners you asked.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15386457632784402960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1808006461453621029.post-3072604032320710672011-09-06T22:33:22.936-07:002011-09-06T22:33:22.936-07:00just checked the results...top10!!!!!!! you must b...just checked the results...top10!!!!!!! you must be so pleased!katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181895420538192368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1808006461453621029.post-56508396257331423192011-09-06T22:27:44.971-07:002011-09-06T22:27:44.971-07:00absolutely bimin' fantastic daz!!! out of int...absolutely bimin' fantastic daz!!! out of interest how much climbing do you do in your training for this? and can i borrow your lucky some time?!! ;)katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181895420538192368noreply@blogger.com
