Training - Week 1
Hey all!
Confirmed as part of the marathon on the Monday, so training officially began on the Tuesday. My plan at least for the first month is to do one night on and one night off progressively increasing distance. As its winter here its cold, wet and dark from 4.30pm so all weekday running is at night. Got off to a good start with a 10km run in the rain Tuesday, had the Wednesday off and woke up with a cold on the Thursday which kinda killed the training I had planned for the week. As it was more of a headcold I still managed 8k Thursday night and then another 6k during the day Saturday, was hoping for another run today but the cold seems to have moved more to my chest and back so going to have a rest.
So week 1 results:
Distance Covered: 24.3 km's
Total running time: 2 hours and 37 minutes
Average speed: 9.3km/h
Money raised: £2.00 (Thanks Greg)
Roll on week 2
