Preparing to race.

 Last weeks eighty miles caught up with me by Monday evening so since then I have been easing back on the base running mileage, although I did manage to fit in my mid week speed session. I continued with building up my stamina with this weeks speed session by doing ten minute intervals with three minutes jog in between and according to my performance I still have plenty of work to do in the stamina department.
  Since Wednesday I have continued easing back on the mileage as I prepare for this week race which is the Maltby 7 mile road race. My plan is the same as my last race as in using the race to get me back into race mode. I will be giving it 100% and fighting for every position but at the same time I must remember that I am there to thoroughly enjoy it. Which is very  unlike next week were I will be hoping to crack thirty three minutes for 10k and will be going out with all guns blazing at giving it 101% at minimum.
  The weather forecast is now looking good for Sunday as in not raining, I am not too bothered with my time so it can be as windy as it likes this week for me but it had better be flipping perfect the week after.
