The ipod is a liar
Friday evening looks like it is becoming a regular time to visit the gym and hence "the treadmill run". I decided to run a full 10k at 1k every five minutes, a reasonable pace. I set up a 50 minute hill run. When I hit 9k I upped the speed to do a sub 4 minute k. It was probably the longest run I have ever done on a treadmill and as well as the distance I climbed 96 metres. I was a bit disappointed that my ipod said 9.59k, and for those who know about the messages you receive with a nike+ ipod I was half expecting a message from Paula Radcliffe congratulating me on my fastest k, as at the moment the record stands at 4.16. No message came. Next Friday I may just run a flat 10k as I have heard that the Nike+ can not cope with hills so well.......anyway the happy news that is 14 days of running straight. I am 99% sure I have never run one week straight and 100% I have never run 14 days before. Everything is new territory from here onwards.
Week 2
Day 8 6.2 miles
Day 9 3.1 miles
Day 10 6.1 miles
Day 11 4.1 miles
Day 12 1.4 miles
Day 13 3.6 miles
Day 14 6 miles
Total 30.5
(week 1 + week 2 = 57.2)
