Well, these updates fell off the radar pretty quickly! Luckily it doesn't mean that my training did too, though I really haven't followed my training plan as well as I had hoped! Life really does get in the way.
Week 8 started out well. I ran the MacPass miles for the first time and pushed my 12k long run out to the Monday. I didn't miss any other training that week till Saturday when we were in a mostly minor car accident. The car ended up being a write off, but nobody was seriously hurt and I was only stiff and sore for a few days.
Week 9 was car accident recovery and vacation. I did run 3.5 kms on my birthday, but that was it.
Week 10 was the rest of vacation, but I managed to get in 2 runs (6k and 8k) after I got home.
Week 11 only had 2 runs - a 16k long run and a 6k run mid week. No really good reason for skipping the rest.
Week 12 started to look better with a 17k long run, a 5k run and a night of hill repeats.
Week 13 fell of the rails again. I skipped my 18km long run and only made it out for one clinic night with a 6k run. Then we travelled to BC for the weekend. With 20+ hours of travel over 4 days and a 4 hour time zone difference, I didn't even bother packing running gear.
You'll notice during all of these updates that there is no mention of going to the gym. I haven't been to boot camp since August 10th, but fully intend to get back at it this week.
I only have 3 weeks left until the Valley Harvest Half Marathon. That gives me a total of 13 training runs, so I really can't skip/miss any of them!
