Week 11 - Half Way

The last week of the first half of Comrades preparation was a bit of an easy week because of work commitments.


Monday March 8: Short Easy run on West Toronto Rail Path route. 7.34km

Tuesday March 9: No run - too busy to squeeze it in!

Wednesday March 10: Longboat run along the lake shore. Planned a 7km tempo run but cut short due to stomach cramps. Still managed a good effort overall, except when doubled over clutching my stomach. 18.77km.

Thursday March 11th: 2x Morningside hill circuits with a loop of the 2km High Park ring road. 16.95km.

Friday March 12th: Easy run to High Park and back. 9.80km.

Saturday March 13th: Decided to run the Slainte 5km race in Hamilton. Came third overall in 16:59, but I suffered problems with my achilles afterwards. 2km warm up for 7km total.

Sunday March 14th: Decided to postpone my long run until tomorrow for a little more recovery. It was also a miserable day - wet and cool. So did an easy run over to High Park instead. 11.58km.

Week Total: 74.4km
YTD Total: 1034.2km


A busy work week left a little less time for running. Despite the third place finish, I ended up regretting the 5km race since my achilles started to act up and I was tentative in my running. Still, there's lots of time to get over it - Right?
