Not so great week that ended well!
This week has been a good and bad week. At the beginning of the week I was still struggling with my running. I talked about it in my last post and have deduced it is the time of the year. I have been feeling like my times have not been improving even though I have been... Continue Reading →
Struggling to get back into running….
Last week wasn't the best week. In fact since I got back from my trip overseas 5 weeks ago things haven't exactly gone according to plan! The plan was to get back, get the 1kg off that I gained, get back into running and really push the training. Three things happened: I got sick It was... Continue Reading →
