Running in my life is constant. As in :
– Constantly telling myself to run a bit longer.
– Constantly telling myself to run faster.
– Constantly ignoring my running while drinking beer.
These weeks I am averaging 20KM a week. Way down down from around 40KM a month ago. Don’t know what happened. Just slumped.
Treats from the neighbours do not help. Look at this plate of deliciousness.
Yes. That is a bottle of wine. One of the many consumed that night.
I think it’s a lack of discipline. And lack of will power.
Got to fix it.
These are the days to run here in Ontario before everything turns to white. Look at this picture from one of the trails I took.
And this.
So, I plan to record my running here. I am making a spreadsheet (why? Because i am a project manager and that’s all I know) and put it here to record it more formerly.
I am a big fan of dailymile.com but the data was very bland. I will go back there again because the social element is amazing!!
Have bought a nice new toy (Garmin 220) and plan to use it as much as possible.
Anyway, here is what I did last week.
Monday (12-October) : 6.6 km
Tuesday (13-October) : had to go to downtown
Wednesday (14-October) : 6.2 Km
Thursday (15-October) : 5.2 km
Friday (16-October) : Oktoberfest!!! Had a blast!
Saturday (17-October) : recovery day but managed 6.1 km
Sunday (18-October) : 11.59 km
Total : 35.69 km
Wait, that’s more than 20km. Woo hoo!
Let’s see what happens this week.
I have been keeping a spreadsheet of all my runs since 2010. It’s fun to have it calculate your median and mean runs, keep track of how many miles you’re putting on your shoes, etc. I also record the route, any aches or pains, etc. (What can I say? I’m a geek.)
Beautiful pictures of your running route!
I have started a spreadsheet too. Should have done it a long time ago.
