RunningBlog: Week 30

Last week’s mystery weakness hung around, making me tired and achey and pukey. On Thursday it finally manifested – I’m sick! Not sure what this virus is, but it wiped me out. I ended up taking Thursday and Friday off (from work, from running, from everything). The Snook’s got it too! Fine birthday present from me. Anyway, we did manage to get in a couple decent runs before it finally laid us low. Last Sunday was our long run of 15km, which was also the Snook’s longest ever. We did it at a comfortable 2:1 ratio and pace. On Tuesday I headed out for a run on my own to break in my new Mizunos. Wednesday I went to Spudds, but I was feeling really weak and crappy by that point. I should’ve known something was up!

July 24: 15.20km
July 26: 6.00km
Total this week: 21.2km (13.25mi)
Total in 2011: 725.65km (453.5mi)

In order to meet my goal of running 1200km in 2011, I should be at 692km. So I’ve still got a nice little cushion there…

    When do you speak of a 2:1 ratio, is it walking:running or running:walking?

    I always quote the running part first. So two minutes running, then one minute walking.

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.
