Unfortunately this has been a very busy week so my mileage is low. However, even with the stress and the tendency to look through a negative lens, I have to say it was a fairly good week.

The plan this week was:
- Monday – gym, walking
- Tuesday – walking
- Wednesday – walking
- Thursday – walking
- Friday – gym, walking
- Saturday – parkrunday! + walking
- Sunday – walking
Gym
Quite pleased we made it again to the gym twice this week. Both times with a warmup and cooldown run/walk/jog there and back. Still not following any structured program but right now that is fine. Whilst in the gym I’m dong mostly strength (unless, like last week. we have to drive there) focusing on exercises that I know are good for running.
Running
No real running this week. Only to and from the gym.
- Monday – 4KM walk/jog
- Friday – 4 KM walk/jog
I volunteered this week at parkrun so no run for me. Next week I am the Run Director, so another week with no run. I have non-local parkrun plans coming up soon though, so I’m looking forward to that.
Walking
Still walking every day but it was another week with less mileage than desired. Then again the walk streak is about making sure I get out every day for at least 1 kilometer. So another successful week.
- Monday – 2KM
- Tuesday – 2.5KM
- Wednesday – 2KM
- Thursday – 3.3KM
- Friday – 2km
- Saturday – 2KM
- Sunday – 6KM
Total: 19.3KM
Still a stressful situation at work and this week I spent a lot of time with one of my colleagues to try to train him a bit more in my role so that I can actually go on holiday without coming back to a sh*tshow.
Next week is busy again however I am planning on going to the training group on Tuesday. So Monday and Friday gym, Tuesday training and hopefully another run somewhere sandwiched in.
