RE:
Cheers, EG.
I rounded out week 4 of my 26-week Sydney marathon training plan this evening with a gentle 10.1km around the local streets. Today's run was very nearly hijacked by a bout of hangover syndrome following a night of wine, more wine, a little more wine again, and then the killer, 18yo Chivas Regal scotch followed by still more wine. Not the greatest component of my marathon training program, but gee it was fun.
So after feeling sorry for myself most of the morning, mother-in-law came over for thankfully booze-free healthy lunch (although hair-of-the-dog probably would have helped). A post-lunch snooze then had me feeling much better and so I finally headed out at dusk for an easy 7 or 8 kilometres to put the training schedule back on track. It was such a pleasant evening however that I added a couple more clicks to give me a 73 kilometre fortnight.
So all is on schedule and looking good.
Heading into week 5 however I have the dreaded overnight shifts to contend with, so some thought needed on how to keep to the schedule. Never mind, we'll get there somehow.
