some news on GP coming out soon by the way xxx How did you now that Scott? Also: You are in for one hell of a shock if you are only putting in 20 max miles per week in training for a marathon. Yes most people, not me now unfortunately, could get away with walking round. But you will be very lucky to even jog round unless you up the miles. Before you ask, my best time was 3hrs 28mins. I did 5 in my late 30's early 40's. I did in fact run 28 miles prior to doing a formal race to make sure I could go the distance as I didnt want to be one of those blowing out and either not making it or having to walk in.

Not being ungrateful, but Paladini needs to leave the club completely if any integrity / transparency is going to be restored, otherwise people are just going to remain as dubious as we are now & with good reason.
With regards to the Marathon, I have run a marathon in 3:00 & was regularly doing 80+ mile weeks, I was obsessive about it, but I take it seriously & achieved a good time.
Like people have already said, 20 miles a week is neither here nor there, you would get away with that mileage if you were doing a half marathon, but not a full one, you need to quit your cigarettes & double your mileage to around 40-50 miles a week, otherwise you are going to have a rough day & not enjoy it.

Ex 2.21 marathon runner here - 20 years and 3 stone ago - 120 miles a week - week in week out.
You need to be doing 18-20 miles runs minimum on Sundays the 6 weeks before the race/run - some serious upping of the ante required...

I think at my peak in training I did one week of around 100 miles, but not 120. The next Marathon I run I would like to go comfortably Sub 3, where I was / have been getting it wrong is just flogging myself senseless doing hills & long runs, but not focusing on the speedwork which was stupid of me, I reckon I probably have something around a 2:49 marathon in me, but I would certainly like to be able to ask you some things as to where I am going wrong / where I can improve, would you mind if I PM'ed you to ask you some specifics ? I have to say a 2.21 Marathon is a truly monumental human achievement, absolutely incredible. |

McIntyre Friday Twitter Q: sounds like you don't think Palladini will be going? A: may well get rid of a title he didn't want or need(as he'd been doing that job anyway).But leave QPR? I'd be very surprised [Also: Managers having control over signings has caused QPR big problems down the years. Important not to go too far the other way twitter.com/davidmcintyre76 |

i want to see apoligies for getting it wrong so that we can move on
he was bad but id like him to move on in a good light
purely because then hopefully he will move on to
its like spliting up with an ugly bird, it either ends in two ways
1. to ashamed to tell her so you just cheat on her and make it blatent
2. be brave apoligise and leave with your head held high and your bollocks still in tact

I must say, my admiration for you knows no bounds! That is something that as a human being you can be truly proud of until the day you die. I would be incredibly happy with myself & satisfied just to do a sub three Marathon, which for us mere mortals isnt easy! Having said that, I know that I have it in me, & I suppose I just need to focus more on the speed sessions next time. |

I admire ANYONE who runs a full marathon! No matter the time, but all three of you klr, bp and writtler did some great times as well.
Scott could do worse than take advice from the three of you.
But surely I am right that if you just want to survive a marathon, say doing a time of 4.40 or so, jogging around. Then, for Scott for instance, he should concentrate more on distance than on speed. That is, try to have at least one longer run a week, perhaps 10-20 miles and one or two shorter runs/week (say 7-10 miles?).

So here we are, nine days later...and confusion and board rumours reign... Just to add to this thread, this was Dave McIntyre/BBC Report BBC - February 11, 2010 - Gianni Paladini's future at troubled Championship club QPR is in doubt.- BBC Sport understands Paladini has offered his resignation as sporting director after being barracked by fans during Tuesday's loss against Ipswich. The Italian is expected to continue in his role as club chairman until the end of next month, when his position is due to be reviewed. It will then be decided whether Paladini will have any further involvement at Loftus Road. Paladini, a former agent, bought a stake in QPR in 2004. He took control the following year after a boardroom dispute led to the ousting of - Bill Power as chairman and chief executive Mark Devlin. Paladini remained as club chairman after a Flavio-Briatore led takeover in August 2007, and was later handed the additional title of sporting director. Co-owner Briatore, who is chairman of the club's parent company, QPR Holdings, has been criticised following a series of problems on and off the pitch. Paladini, who has had a major influence over transfer deals, has also come under fire. QPR are currently 17th in the table - only two points off the relegation zone - and have lost their last four games. Mick Harford has been in caretaker charge since Paul Hart departed last month after only five matches at the helm. Hart was Rangers' eighth manager since 2006 and their sixth since Briatore's arrival. qprreport.blogspot.com/2010/02/change-at-loftus-road.html |
