Well, that last post pretty much speaks for itself, doesn’t it? Here are the official numbers…

Week 9 distance: 21.65mi (34.7km)
Week 10 distance: 11mi (18km)
Week 11 distance: 26mi (42km)

So I had about a 20% increase from my last long-distance week, which is exactly what I was supposed to have. I feel surprisingly good today. My legs are a little sore, but it’s nowhere near as bad as I expected. I’m really impressed with how quickly my body is able to recover from these stresses. (But don’t worry; I’m still going to take it easy this week.) I’m also happy to report that I’ve lost six pounds since my return from the US! Granted, most of that was weight that I put on while I was there, but it’s nice to see things moving in the right direction again. I’d really love to lose some more before the race next month.


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
