THE WRITE-UP.

machine-written, human-checked
Eight sessions, 7h 50m, and 8 PBs fell out of it, which feels a bit unfair on every other week. Crossfit did the heavy lifting with 5 sessions, then a pilates, a workout and a run got stuck in to keep things cheeky. The run was a half marathon in 1:53:35, and the best efforts came along for the ride: a mile in 7:51, a 5K in 25:14 and a 10K in 51:54. Five days unbroken, legs, arms and shoulders took a proper battering, and 3381 kcal went up in smoke across 178 m of climbing. Bloody hell, what a week, and I'm so, so chuffed with myself. Legs shaking, PBs raining, and I'd still book it all again tomorrow.
