It is safe to say now that I have definitely got the running bug. I've been itching to get out after my rest days and genuinly look forward to each run.
I've also been giving some thought to my goals. I need to have some shorter term goals to keep me focussed and feeling as if I'm achieving something. So, I have decided that as well as the Exeter 5k series (one week to go!) I will be doing a half marathon on the 21st of October. The best thing about this is that I have found a 16 week training plan to get me ready for the race. This will give me some real focus and keep me going when the weather starts getting colder! The first 5 weeks look like this (distances in miles):
Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
Wk 1 off 3 off 3 off 4 3
Wk 2 off 3 off 3 off 5 3
Wk 3 off 4 off 4 off 6 3
Wk 4 off 4 off 4 off 6 3
Wk 5 off 5 off 5 off 7 3
Well, one week of Juneathon left so it's time to kick on and then start training for the big one
Finally, totals for this week:
Distance: 22.5km
Calories Burned: 2,134
Weight: 195 lbs
