YUUUUR it’s another update on one mans journey to read 52 fantasy books in 52 weeks, creating 52 . . . wait that’s the wrong tagline. This series is the running one. Right. Well it’s proverbial Monday and I forgot to do this last weekend so lets get straight into it.

Some weird ass workouts both last week and this week, really messing around with my pace and stuff. I did a fartlek workout last week that I honestly just made up, based on a few different workouts I saw. I don’t know why I found it necessary to convert meters into miles, but this is America or something.

That’s a fartlek. Do with it what you will. Last week ended with a time trial, which actually went really well. Ran it in 1:41:47 which is just 40ish seconds slower then my PR. Either that means my watch is off, or I really am improving. I took it as a positive, considering I knew it was a time trial but I really wasn’t killing myself for it.

This week we have some odd ones as well, today I ran an odd fartlek, which involved running a hard 1:15 every 6 minutes. I found that to be one of the weirdest, most fun ones. The rest of the week is an 8-miler with a pace increase in the second half, a standard interval workout, than a 20-miler. Tough second half of this week. Lets get it!
