“It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up”
Babe Ruth

This week was designed to be an easier week to allow a bit of recovery from the high mileage. Although the runs were shorter and faster, they weren’t any easier and the body was still knacked!
It was pleasing to run 5 PB’s out of 6 runs indicating I am getting fitter and faster.
Met a guy this week who has run 11 Comrades. His advice was that “Comrades is all in the mind not the body”. But the training will determine how fast I am able to run and what I will feel like at the end of it. Gotta keep working hard and pushing on…
