This run was approximately 12km, and took me 1hr 31min…. so, slow on the hills! There were two medium type hills, one short and sharp, and one very long – the last one, all the way up Mt Victoria! I was surprised that I could do that one without a walk break, so very pleased […]

For some reason, I felt incredibly weary over the weekend, and even Monday – so no running to speak of. Today I still felt tired, but went out anyway. I started feeling sluggish, but as the run went on and the niggles went away I started to run better. In the end, I ran about […]

I didn’t get to Yoga last night – fell asleep – but I wish I had! I’m incredibly weary today, without any energy. Just jogged about 1.5 km to netball, played one full game, and umpired 3 games. I had time to run more, but it didn’t seem like a good idea. Very worried about trying to […]

My run was split into two today, just ran out of time to fit it in around another appointment. I took the hilliest route I could find from home to Frank Kitts Park and return, including back streets of Newtown and Mt Victoria! I’m estimating I covered about 11km in 1hr 20min. The return journey […]

Wednesday: Blah! Felt flat and couldn’t face a long hill run today! Now I have to re-arrange my week! Thursday: Ran a total of 6.5km, mostly on the treadmill, sandwiched around Express Fit session. Believe me, the run was easy compared to the gym class! I’m too old to crawl around on the floor pushing […]

Monday: Much needed rest day! Tuesday: Ran 6.5km, in about 43 minutes – happy with this. This was about 4pm, and very cold, with a light southerly. I felt tired and sluggish to start with, but got better as the run progressed – quite enjoyable, really!

Thursday: Express Fit – I was the only client, so I got plenty of attention – emphasis on core. Worked hard, abs so sore next day!! Friday: Ran about 6.5km in 43 minutes, not bad. Just an easy pace run today. Saturday: No netball, so an easy day: 4.5km on the treadmill (30 minutes) followed […]

Just short of 11km, on a hilly route – up to Roseneath, down to Oriental Bay, and back the same way, chasing the hills! I felt slow and sluggish to start, but I didn’t really struggle with the hills, and felt stronger the longer I was out there. Really happy with this one!

Monday: Made up for the extra rest day on Sunday with a solid 14km run today, around the southern end of the Miramar Peninsula. Finished strongly, but tired and sore later. Soreness in the SI joint is now happening earlier in my run (20 minutes), but it seems to ease off after an hour or […]

The tiredness caught up with me as the week went on. All I’ve done this week is a 5k treadmill run, a yoga class, Express Fit and three quarters of a netball game! My nutrition went out the window, so have had a bit of an upset tummy – too much chocolate, not enough vegetables. […]
