WRD – Week 33 Noah Called
Tweet Week 8 of 16 Chicago Marathon training is a done deal. I’m halfway and I feel about a quarter ready to take on the distance. I’m not going to dwell too much on the negative that I feel, because I know it does not help me. Pushing onwards. You know how you shouldn’t compare…
WRD: Week 32 – Progress
Tweet Don’t really have much out of the ordinary to report this week. We are progressing along with marathon training. Week 7 is in the books! I tried to do my training as close as I could to what was on the schedule, but there were a few changes here and there. Plan vs. Actual…
WRD: Week 31 and Hello August!
Tweet Whoo hoo! It’s August! We are getting closer and closer to the marathon and now my birthday is less than a month away. I’m really happy my mileage is going up. I’m still struggling a bit with endurance but I’m just going to keep on keeping on. Wonder how many kilometers I’ll run in…
WRD: Week 30 – Stronger
Tweet This week was much better as far as work goes, but it was finally “our” turn to experience the Heatwave from Hell. Training continued, sleep remained difficult, at some point the airco at work didn’t even work properly anymore (and it’s normally freezing in the office). We had two days that were the “hottest…
WRD: Vacation Catch-Up
Tweet It’s been a few weeks, my 3-week summer holiday is officially coming to an end and, to be honest, I have no idea how I’m going to start up again; work, training, keeping up with housework, cooking, etc. UGH. First world problems right? I’m going to try and keep this short – I know…
WRD: Week 25 Summer Starts
Tweet Summer is truly here, the temperatures are higher, the rain is a bit less and we’ve officially had the longest day on Thursday! The heat is supposed to increase as well in the next week … good thing I’ve started my summer holiday so I can wear as little clothes as possible around the…
WRD: Week 24 Back in the Saddle
Tweet This week was finally a bit “normal” – I wasn’t sick, I worked four days, and I got a lot of activity in. Little Love Note to the Commenters: I’m so sorry I haven’t replied on comments the last few posts. Life and Work has been busy; I’m hopefully going to catch up this…
WRD: Week 23 -What’s the Time?
Tweet It’s time to get ill, apparently. So, yeah, this week was kind of a wash. I want to say I started off strong, but to be honest (firstly, with myself) I was already sick last week Friday and just fighting it. I’ve been sick more than a week, the worst of it really being…
WRD: Another Catch-up Week 21 + 22
Tweet I wish I had about 36 hours in each day so I had more time to blog consistently! Oh well. It’s a luxury problem! I’ll try to keep it short, sweet and fairly readable! Week 21: Total Steps – 111442 average of almost 16K steps per day Biking – 26.5 KM Lunch Walk x…
WRD: Catching Up Week 19+20
Tweet I’m going to try and keep this weekly run down as short and sweet as possible. I know how hard it is to follow up on all the blogs in the linkup so I want to make this as easy as possible. You’re welcome. Hahaha! I can’t believe it was just last week that…
