This felt like a good week. My mileage may not have been quite as high as I was aiming for, but every single run felt like a quality run. From that snowy, gusty cold run (see previous post) to Friday’s run – my first run in months with only one layer of clothing on when the temperature worked its way up to a balmy 0C!!! This was also the first week in this session of training where I consistently managed to run at a pace of less than 6 min/km. And to top it all off, I have received a Running Room store credit because of those mismatched Aisics I unknowingly bought last fall. All in all, a good running week and I am looking at the Around the Bay 30k race a little more positively (as in I now think I will be able to finish it without offering myself up to the Grim Reaper who stands at the top of the last hill).
Last week’s runs:
Sunday: rest
Monday: 7km 6:30 min/km
Tuesday: 5km 5:35 min/km
Wednesday: yoga
Thursday: 5km 5:39 min/km
Friday: 6km 5:54 min/km
Saturday: 14km 6:17 min/km
Total: 37km
