Well, half of the hay is in the barn as they say, just over two months to go before Adrian and I toe the line in Pietermaritzburg for our run to Durban. Exciting, but scary at the same time. There's still lots to do, but time is running out.
So far I'm happy with:
My weekly mileage, which has been consistently higher than at any time in my running career;
My ability to handle the mileage without too much more than a general feeling of fatigue;
I have been able to run well on hills on a regular basis, even on long runs.
I'm not happy with:
Distance of long run - 40km is the longest so far;
Speed of everyday runs - feel like I have no zip, possibly because of high mileage
Things to work on in the second half of the buildup:
Longer long runs;
Continued incremental weekly mileage increases;
Core strength, leg strength and stretching.
Piece of cake really.
