A simple longer run this morning to start Xmas. Happy and surprised to do sub 9 minute miling for 10k of the run; the power of company. Dodged the rain.
The time of year when you start assessing the training effort so far [especially a year into a three year challenge cycle]. I must have completed the base phase? Though it feels behind the same point of the previous 1,000 day challenge; I must do a deep dive to compare. I keep forgetting though, that I still have 2 1/2 years to hit my stride of peak fitness for summer 2026.
I have certainly fallen behind [as haven’t be focussing on] the Citystrides logging. Gone to 277th in world from a height of 150th? Laughing that I did parts of 80 new roads yesterday, but completed none.
I also realise I hadn’t updated my smashrun data since October; run streak now 298 days [at least a mile walked each day]. My current best is 438 days. I hope to do all 366 days of 2024 leap year, to better that streak.
It is funny to look back and be shocked that I did nothing on 30 days in 2021. I have only missed one day [March 1st 2023] since 17th December 2021.
