Training progressing nicely.
Started slowly with 2 runs for total 8.98 kilometres at an average pace 5.47 minutes p/kilometre in first week of May.
Following week, upped distance over 2 runs to 9.85 at pace 5.84.
The 3rd week distance 13.3, pace 5.29, last week did 21.8 kilometres at pace 5.39 minutes per kilometre.
So the next week, I was in Brisbane for work from Monday till Thursday, with a plan to try to run 4 times, as there's some nice running tracks up and down Brisbane River. Entered the Real Insurance 10 kilometre run on 12 July to see how I am going in prep for City To Surf.
Well, whilst it was challenging keeping running regime up whilst in Brisbane for work attending workshops, it didn't stop me!
I managed 3 runs for total 14.4 kilometres at an average pace 5.45 minutes p/kilometre last week. Then did another run on the Friday, 5.84 kilometres at average pace 5.25 minutes p/kilometre.
So plan for next few weeks is 4 runs per week with a long run of at least 8 kilometres. Need to probably get at least one 9 kilometre run in before the Real Insurance 10 kilometre run on 12 July.My fundraising has stalled a little but there's plenty of time so I'll ramp up that piece of the equation over the next 2-3 weeks.
Thanks to those people who have donated already.
Cheers,
Guy
