THE WRITE-UP.

machine-written, human-checked
Thirteen sessions, 16h 9m and 7833 kcal, and somehow the week was mostly pilates, with seven of them stacked up like it was the main event. The actual headline is the single run, which swallowed 5h 12m all by itself, and the 42.7 km across everything is mostly down to that one daft outing. Three crossfit and two weight sessions kept the legs, arms and shoulders busy, and the burn rate peaked at 730 kcal/h, so it was not all gentle stretching. Ten personal records fell along the way, which is bonkers for a week with a four day streak and a body that was clearly running on fumes. Plan versus reality was ruthless as usual, but bloody hell, what a week to be chuffed with myself. Seven pilates classes and one very long run: that's how you get ten PBs and still walk funny.
