THE WRITE-UP.

machine-written, human-checked
Twelve sessions and only 9.1 km to show for it, because pilates ate five of them and crossfit grabbed another four. Two runs got squeezed in around the edges and bloody hell, they paid off, with four PRs including a 5K in 26:31 and a mile in 8:30. All in that was 9h 54m of faffing about, 3749 kcal gone, and a 3 day streak that held without much arguing. Legs, shoulders and arms did most of the graft, which is why the stairs felt like a personal attack. The longest session clocked in at 1h 1m and the heart rate peaked at 148 bpm, so nobody can say it was a gentle week. Quiet strength all week, loud numbers on the clock.
