This week in running - Happy Birthday Me!



Weekly Mileage: 37 km + hills

This week just gone was my birthday week. Why celebrate a day when you can scam a whole week ?? Actually the celebrations were somewhat low key - that's what happens when you have young kids! Low key but lovely was the order of the day.

I started the day with a run - as you do. Kinda hot but it felt ok. I haven't been running well lately. I have been slow and it has felt like a chore. But this run felt ok. Not great, but ok. I will take ok. Ok is the first step to great!

Just the usual runs this week. I need to take the kids in the car and run by the beach or harbour again. I'm sure the scenery will make me run faster. Or not.

I am still experimenting with Tabata weights workouts. And they are still kicking my butt. The pushup sequence is just saaaaad.

Most importantly this week, I took delivery of this red hot baby.








Yep, parkrun 50 shirt! It's  a really great shirt and quite comfortable. I ran on Saturday in it. Bit of a mistake as it was as hot as Hades ( I was sweating before the start) and I think it is singlet weather from here on in. But I earnt that shirt I am darn well going to wear it! No PB but I was happy with my time in the heat.
