  2. Racing Tomorrow – Bure Valley 10 Mile

    Final Grand Prix Race of 2023. Will I end on a high?

    Even though it has only been 5 weeks since the Dereham 5k, it seems like months. I guess this is because all of the other 2023 Sportlink Grand Prix races were much closer together (with 3 days being the shortest gap).

    So here we are. Tomorrow it’s the turn of the Bure Valley Harriers to host their Bure Valley 10 Mile Race, the 14th, and (sadly) final, Sportlink Grand Prix race of the 2023 season. (It looks like there are still a few places available if you fancy it… you can enter at Total Race Timing.)

    Starting and finishing in the North Norfolk village of Banningham, my presumption is that it will be a gently undulating route around the surrounding country roads. If the weather is favourable, I suspect fast times will be the order of the day.

    And speaking of the weather, the current forecast is a sunny 16° C, with a moderate breeze. So fingers crossed conditions will be near perfect.

    Predictions

    Below is a table of predictions from various algorithms / sources. Note that the Athlete Data Analysis Platform and Running Watch do not provide 10 mile race predictions, and so I have had to derive values from their 10 km and half marathon distance predictions.

    AlgorithmPace (min/km)Time (mm:ss)Difference from fastest (%)Riegel (6 min Assessment)4:3774:17– 11.3 %Riegel (3.2 km Assessment)4:2871:53– 8.4 %Athlete Data Analysis Platform4:2170:00– 5.9 %Running Watch4:1468:07– 3.2 %TrainAsONE4:0766:15– 0.5 %Riegel (5 km Race)4:0666:06–Predictions for tomorrow’s 10 mile road race from a selection of sources. Ordered by increasing velocity.

    Given that my last 10 mile race was completed in 66:33 (a personal record), I would have thought that a sub 70 minute time is probable.

    Consequently, as has been the case for the whole season, the assessment predictions are suggesting quite a slow (and unlikely?) time for me. And, as has been common, the Athlete Data Analysis Platform and Running Watch are suggesting times somewhere between my expectation and the assessments.

    Another 10 mile PB? TrainAsONE thinks so.

    At 66:06, the 5 km Riegel prediction is the fastest, with TrainAsONE a close second with a time of 66:15. It is nice to see them concur. It gives faith in their values, and is especially nice as they both predict a personal record time! The game is on!

    Wish me luck!

    (I’ll let you know how it goes.)

  3. Building my aerobic base up today with a 60 minute run. Managed to keep in the desired zone for practically all of the way round apart from a steep incline half way #running #10krun #aerobicrunning #runhappy #runnerslife #RunnersOfMastodon

  4. Aerobic threshold run to start the running week off. Probably won’t get much more out of my Nike tempos now they’ve gone over 700km #run #running #halfmarathontraining #runnerslife #mastorunners #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  5. Finishing off the week with a 2 hour recovery run. Kept first half as much as possible in hr zone 2 then allowed it to rise to compensate for effort and any hills to contend with. #running #halfmarathontraining #longrun #polarrunning #sundayrun #sundaylongrun #loverunning #runnerslife #mastorunners #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  6. intervals day today. Tough but enjoyable session 👊 20 minutes warm up 8 x 3 minutes at 4:30-5 min/km with 3 minutes recovery and 20 minutes cool down and 14.8km/9.2 miles ran in total #run #Runners #running #loverunning #runnerslife #intervalrunning #speedrun #RunnersOfMastodon #polarrunning #polarflow

  7. Finally got out the door 4 hours after getting up! I’m usually out a little earlier than that but a heavy shower put me off. Happy with today’s result as I’ve not ran over 15k in the 90 minutes I’d allotted for the run #run #running #runnerslife #adidasrunning #halfmarathontraining #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  8. Wk 5, day 3 of 4 : 80 minutes with 40 at tempo. Kept a reasonably good pace for the tempo part but didn’t want to push too hard so did walk a couple of times to bring heart rate back into a more workable zone. #running #temporunning #halfmarathontraining #adidasrunning #runnerslife #loverunning #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  9. Easy ish 10k in an hour. Would love to be able to keep heart rate from rising too much but until I find somewhere totally flat and not having to travel far to find it, suppose I’ll just have to put up with the uphills where I am #Running #10krun #adidasrunning #runnerslife #loverunning #run #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  10. Manchester Half Marathon training continues and 10k in 60 minutes to start off week 4. Would have preferred to have kept heart rate down on the back half of the run but happy with pace consistency #running #halfmarathontraining #10krun #runnerslife #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  11. Half marathon plan suggested 90 minutes slow run in heart rate zone 2. Surprisingly I almost managed it apart from a blip when I had to stop for a dog 😕Anyway job done and another 14km ticked off #running #halfmarathontraining #manchesterhalfmarathon #runnerslife #adidasrunning #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule l

  12. Threshold running today, 10 minutes warm up then an hour moving through heart rate zones keeping below 167 bpm and finishing off with 5 minutes cool down. #running #halfmarathontraining #thresholdrunning #polarrunning #adidasrunning #runnerslife #RunnersOfMastodon #oldguysrule

  13. Today is recovery/rest day and most of the time procrastinating whether to do some strengthening exercises ready for tomorrow’s threshold run #run #runnerslife #running #RunnersOfMastodon
