A reasonable start to the year and some high mileage in recent weeks allowed me to reduce the length of my runs and have an easy week. Not that the running is ever very easy!
I tried to increase the pace on my runs and get a little faster. Monday was an easy 8km and I was obviosuly still feeling the effects of the previous week as I couldn’t run very fast!
Tuesday was a decent 15km and Wednesday was a welcome day off running. A good tempo run on Thursday was followed with a medium 24km on Friday. It felt a better than the previous week’s long run!
The weekend I only managed 2 short sessions as we were busy with an Internet marketing seminar so I had less time to exercise. Sunday’s run gave me a Right lower calf/shin pain, so I’ll have to work on that over the next few days as next week it’s time to up the mileage again!
