Adventures of Jase: November 2011
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 21, 2011. Dublin Intermediate XC 2011. Team Rathfarnham (look at the camera. stupid). Yesterday marked the penultimate race of what, for me, been a long and demanding year of competitive running and training. This photo fails to capture the despair, because you can't see the guys that I'm chasing. Compared with the Dublin Novice XC results. Although not surprising (given recent form in training), this is rather disappointing because I trained very hard in the intervening period, and I ev...

Adventures of Jase: Dublin Novice XC Championships
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2011/10/dublin-novice-xc-championships.html
Tuesday, October 4, 2011. Dublin Novice XC Championships. The 2km lap winds around a big field before entering a section of forest with a few hills and sharp corners, then emerging from the forest and winding back to the start/finish line. Novice is really close to my name. Nice! November 13, 2011 at 8:56 AM. December 10, 2014 at 7:36 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Present Location - Dublin, Ireland.

Adventures of Jase: March 2011
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 29, 2011. The next station is. Greenwich. With less than three weeks to go until London marathon, it seems like as good of a time as any to take stock of where I’m at and assess the task at hand. Setting a target time. Next is to break-down the race based on the target time. Finish time: 2 hours 32 minutes. 3:36 minutes/km (or 5km splits of 18:00). 5:48 minutes/mile (5 mile splits of 29:00). Despite the focus here on pace, in reality you have to run based on how you feel. If it feels h...

Adventures of Jase: August 2011
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 25, 2011. High altitude training in the French Pyrenees. After a week of hard training combined with eating and drinking too much in Paris, I said goodbye to Alison and took a long train ride down to the French Pyrenees, to a small village in the clouds called Font Romeu. The plan was to meet my club mates Sean, Kevin, Brian and Louis for a week of high altitude training. For anyone interested in training in Font Romeu, here are a few things to know before you go:. Apartments tend to be ...

Adventures of Jase: September 2011
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 26, 2011. 65279;. 65279;Three weeks ago I decided to kick the habit of running marathons, and I already feel like it’s one of the best decisions that I’ve made. 8x1km off 90 seconds. 12x400m off 60 seconds or short jog recovery. 10x800m off 60/90 seconds. 5x1 mile off 2 minutes. 30 minute tempo run. 10x300m off 60 seconds or jog recovery. Short hill repeats (30 or 60 second). It already seems to be working since I already ran a 5km P.B (15:53) over the weekend on the back of...

Adventures of Jase: February 2012
http://adventuresofjase.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 13, 2012. Feet in the clouds: Annagh Hill race report. The first thing we saw when we climbed out of the bus outside the race registration was the ‘the wall’. This was the name aptly given to the ‘face’ of Annagh Hill which, on this day, rose forebodingly up into the clouds. There would be no messing around with switch-backs or fire roads here: we would have to follow a rustic stone wall directly up the side of Annagh hill. Oh right… here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, February 11, 2011. The definition of success. This seems to be a polarizing issue for NZ at the moment:. Http:/ www.stuff.co.nz/sport/other-sports/4646268/Controversy-over-All-Whites-Halberg-Awards-win. It lead me to thinking – how should we define success? As it happens, I completely agree with Dick Taylor. Rewarding mediocrity - it’s symptomatic of the PC ‘every participant deserves a medal’ culture that is now pervading in our society. In this case it comes down to one group of men against ano...
