90 Day Running Challenge: Day 5 – Pushing through

Today I managed to bring up the 60km for the week with another 12km run. No records were set, the first Km was definitely no where near my fastest, but at the end of the day I got the run into my legs which is the primary purpose of the challenge.

It was another beautiful spring morning as I set out on my usual run, clear crisp sky and not too hot at 5:45am. I was feeling a bit tired and a bit blocked from my hay fever, today has not been a great day for this!

This morning saw me thinking of two things, the first being the research paper that I am writing – today is the day that I will start the actual writing to try and have it finished by next Friday! Secondly, how I am going to manage runs over Saturday and Sunday this week, various commitments are going to stretch and challenge me to think creatively!

I didn’t set any records today with the run, completing the 12km in just over 1 hour and 9 minutes. Tomorrow, in thinking creative and to give my legs a break I think it will just be a 5km run.

Looking forward to the change up over the coming weekend!
