I ran my fastest ever kilometre last night. After a crazy busy day at work, I styled a catwalk show of 36 outfits in 1 day which meant 1 day with 36 times more stress!! Sometimes it's awesome to run it off & sometimes it is hard to even run!! Last night was the latter. But I had my last personal training session before I 'run Melbourne' half marathon this Sunday. So I ran to the gym & tried to run a fast k. I got tired with 200 metres to go & stopped!?! Why!?! Because that meant I had to try again & at the end of my session! But try again I did. &&&&&&&& I ran my k in 4mins12secs - I will break 4mins soon.
So I have tried different training techniques, done my speedy sessions, stretched & rolled, & changing from super long distance training but not running further than 20k on a Sunday. Well I think I can get close to 1 hour 40 mins for 21.1k this weekend. I'm going for it anyhoo. & am I going to continue the speed freakin? Erm maybe. I have got the 'tan ultra' 50k coming up in August so may focus on more endurance for a couple of weeks. & then we will see what the next runny challenge may be.......
My ULTRA MARATHON run training, health & fitness diary to inspire & exude amazing energy. Sharing my creative adventures in veganism to power me through the distances. & quoting my spiritual enlightenments along the journey...... With my musings & motivation thrown in the healthy trail mix. Gotta keep righteously running like the wind to be free!!! XOX
