THE STORY.

machine-written, human-checked
Fifty sessions and 42h 46m in July, which is a lot of time to spend being knackered on purpose. Pilates quietly won on count with 20, crossfit chased it with 15, and just seven runs plus a trail one still got the total to 58.3 km all in. An 11 day streak stayed unbroken, 15 PBs fell, and a 5K in 23:48 is sat in there looking very smug. The longest sesh was 2h 30m, with 949 m of climbing across the month, so the legs have filed a few complaints. Bloody hell, WHO HAVE I BECOME?! Turns out the plan was never to feel fresh, just to be a lil less dead by the next sesh.
